A one-dimensional plane wall of thickness 2l= 100 mm experiences uniform thermal energy generation of q˙= 800 w/m3 and is convectively cooled at x= ±50 mm by an ambient fluid characterized by [infinity] t[infinity]= 26.0°c. if the steady-state temperature distribution within the wall is t(x)=a(l2-x2)+b where a= 10°c/m2 and b= 30°c, what is the thermal conductivity of the wall? what is the value of the convection heat transfer coefficient, h?

The thermal conductivity of the wall = 40W/m.C

h = 10 W/m^2.C

Explanation:

The heat conduction equation is given by:

d^2T/ dx^2 + egen/ K = 0

The thermal conductivity of the wall can be calculated using:

K = egen/ 2a = 800/2×10

K = 800/20 = 40W/m.C

Applying energy balance at the wall surface

"qL = "qconv

-K = (dT/dx)L = h (TL - Tinfinity)

The convention heat transfer coefficient will be:

h = -k × (-2aL)/ (TL - Tinfinty)

h = ( 2× 40 × 10 × 0.05) / (30-26)

h = 40/4 = 10W/m^2.C

From the given temperature distribution

t(x) = 10 (L^2-X^2) + 30 = 30°

T(L) = ( L^2- L^2) + 30 = 30°

dT/ dx = -2aL

d^2T/ dx^2 = - 2a
