Derive an equation for the rate of heat transfer.
A composite wall is formed by sandwiching a 0.1 m thickness material between two steel slabs. The thermal conductivity of steel is 20 W/mK. We need to calculate the thermal conductivity of the material. The thickness of each steel slab is 0.4 m. The heat flux given at steady state is 20KW/m^2. The inner temperature of this composite wall is 700 K and the outer temperature is 200 K. Also calculate the temperature at the interface.
A solid body of length L with a rectangle cross section has a temperature distribution equals to : T = (-
C/k)*e^(-x)+Cx+D. K is the conductivity and it is equal to 1 W/m.k. At x= 0 the temperature is equal to 373 K.
At x= L the body is well insulated. What should be the value of heat generation so that the body is in steady
