You are pouring a concrete pad 0.1 m thick. The curing of concrete is an exothermic chemical reaction that releases approximately 20 W/m. You may assume the bottom surface of the pad in contact with the round is well-insulated and no heat is transferred, and the upper surface is exposed to air at 17° C with a convective heat transfer coefficient of 5 W/m<-K. You may assume concrete has a constant thermal conductivity of 0.72 W/m-K. You may also assume that the reaches a quasi-steady state where you may consider the time derivatives negligible. What is the maximum temperature in the concrete pad?

Transcribed Image Text:You are pouríng a concrete pad 0.1 m thick. The curing of concrete is an exothermic chemical
reaction that releases approximately 20 W/m. You may assume the bottom surface of the pad in
contact with the round is well-insulated and no heat is transferred, and the upper surface is
exposed to air at 17° C with a convective heat transfer coefficient of 5 W/m2-K. You may assume
concrete has a constant thermal conductivity of 0.72 W/m-K. You may also assume that the
reaches a quasi-steady state where you may consider the time derivatives negligible. What is the
maximum temperature in the concrete pad?
