The given temperature distribution T ( x, y ) is

And so,
And

And similarly

And

And thus we get

And the heat flux is defined as

where, k is the heat conductivity. And so,

For the slab shown, we have derived the equations of the temperature distribution on the Two...
The shield of a nuclear reactor can be idealized as a slab with a face area of 6 ft2 and a thermal conductivity k = 2 Btu / hr*ft*°F. Heat is generated in the shield at a steady rate S = S0 exp(-bx) [Btu / hr*ft3 ] where x = 0 denotes the inner surface close to the nuclear reactor and the outer surface is at x = L. The temperature is maintained at 300 °F at the inner surface...
2. In lecture, we talked about the heat equation on a thin, laterally insulated rod. There are many other domains on which you might want to determine the temperature. In this question, we explore the temperature on a wire that has been formed into a circle. thin wire, length 2L, laying flat on [-L,L] bend wire into a circular shape result is a circular wire where the ends x=L and x=-L correspond to one point now. While the PDE remains...
Consider a uniform bar of length L having an initial temperature distribution given by f(x), 0 < x < L. Assume that the temperature at the end x=0 is held at 0°C, while the end x=L is thermally insulated. Heat is lost from the lateral surface of the bar into a surrounding medium. The temperature u(x, t) satisfies the following partial differential equation and boundary conditions aluxx – Bu = Ut, 0<x<l, t> 0 u(0,t) = 0, uz (L, t)...
Problem 2(30 points) Consider the steady-state temperature distribution in a square plate with dimensions 2 m x 2 m. There is a heat generation of ġ(x.y)=6x [W/my], and the thermal conductivity of k=1[W/(m-°C)]. The temperature on the top boundary is given by a piecewise function, f(x), which is defined below. x(4- x²)+10 0<x<1 | x(4- x?) + 20, 1<x<2 The bottom boundary is insulated. The temperatures on left-handed and right-handed boundary are maintained at constants 10[°C] and 20 [°C] as...

Thus au du ar2 at Suppose that a heat conducting rod of length a has the left end r = ( maintained at temperature ( while the right end at r = is insulated so that there is no heat flow. This gives us the boundary conditions au u(0,t) = 0, (7,0) = 0. Find the solution u(x, t) if the initial temperature distribution on the...

In class we derived a Fokker-Planck equation for the velocity distribution P(et) starting from the assumption of small random changes in velocity at each time step f.(t) where f(t) is chosen from a distribution WU: ). Einstein's original approach to Brownian motion had a different starting point, focusing on position differences at each time step x(t + Δt)-x(t) + E(t) where £(t) is a random displacement chosen from some distribution W(E). Underlying this ap- proach is...
1. Parallel plates. You have two equal but oppositely charged parallel conducting plates, separated by 10 cm. A voltmeter shows that the potential difference between the plates is 500 V. (a) Which is at a higher potential, the positive or negative plate? (b) How big is the electric field between the plates? (c) You let go of an electron next to the negative plate. How much work does the electric field do in moving the electron to the positive plate?...
4. Matlab Solvers: A Case Study in Mechanics Suppose we have two objects orbiting in space, with masses 1 - and , rotating around each other. For example, think of the earth and the moon, where the moon moves around the earth at distance 1. (Of course, here both the masses and the distance are normalized.) A third object, which is relatively much smaller and does not affect the motion of the first two, is also orbiting in space. Think...

Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
