Q is the internal heat source, which heat is generated per unit time per unit
volume. q(x) and q(x + dx) are the heat flux conducted into the control
volume at x and x + dx, respectively. k is thermal conductivity along the x
direction, A is the cross-section area perpendicular to heat flux q(x). T is the
temperature, and is the temperature gradient.

2. Consider the following scenario: a 1D block is 3 m long (L = 3 m), with
constant cross-section area A = 1 m². The left free surface of the block
(x = 0) is maintained at a constant temperature of 200 °C, and the right
surface (x = L = 3m) is insulated. Recall that Neumann boundary

- A pipeline engineer is considering alternative natural gas pipeline routings. The first route is mostly over land and the second is primarily undersea. Both pipelines will need some valve and fitting replacements in year 25. Cost data for each route is shown in Table P2.21. Notice that the undersea route has a higher initial cost due to higher installation costs and extra corrosion protection for the pipeline. However, the undersea route has cheaper security and maintenance costs which substantially reduces annual costs. The MARR for the project is 15%. Determine which route should be pursued based on a present worth analysis.arrow_forwardThe state of stress at a point is σ = -4.00 kpsi, σy Tyz = 8.000 kpsi, and T₂ = -14.00 kpsi.
