HU Thermal Evaluation of a Long Bar in Fluid Question

1. Study Ch. 4 on steady-state heat conduction using finite-difference method, in particular material included and pertaining to Table 4.

2. solve 4.58. Includes a scanned copy of the completed problem in the above REPORT.

3. Create your own geometry for heat conduction, and set up appropriate boundary conditions. Solve for the temperature distributions, and present the results in a table and also in a contour plot.

4. Vary at least two thermal parameters, such as the wall temperature and ambient temperature, or heat transfer coefficient. Then, plot the heat flux variations at the dge3urfaces in line plots at various parameter values. discuss the method, relevance and applications of the geometry that you used, and understanding of heat transfer that can be inferred from the results.
