Question 1 |
Consider a laterally insulated rod of length L and constant thermal conductivity.
Assuming one-dimensional heat conduction in the rod, which of the following
steady-state temperature profile(s) can occur without internal heat generation?


A | |
B | |
C | |
D |
Question 1 Explanation:

This is simply heat transfer through plane surface along it's length.
So, Governing equation for it is
\frac{d^{2} T}{d x^{2}}=0
or \frac{\mathrm{d} T}{\mathrm{dx}}=4
or \mathrm{T}=\mathrm{C}_{1}+\mathrm{C}_{2}
a straight line equation} So, both option (A) and (B) are correct.
Question 2 |
Consider steady state, one-dimensional heat
conduction in an infinite slab of thickness
2L (L = 1 m) as shown in the figure. The conductivity
(k) of the material varies with temperature as
k = CT, where T is the temperature in K, and C is a
constant equal to 2 W\dot m^{-1} \dot K^{-2}. There is a uniform
heat generation of 1280 kW/m^3
in the slab. If both
faces of the slab are maintained at 600 K, then the
temperature at x = 0 is ________ K (in integer).

Question 2 Explanation:
General Heat conduction equation in Cartesian
coordinates is
\frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( K_x\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+\frac{\partial }{\partial y}\left ( K_y\frac{\partial T}{\partial y} \right )\frac{\partial }{\partial z}\left ( K_z\frac{\partial T}{\partial z} \right )+q_g=\rho c\frac{\partial T}{\partial t}
For one dimensional steady state heat generation with variable thermal conductivity, the above equation can be written as
\begin{aligned} \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( CT\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+q_g&=0\\ C\frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+q_g&=0\\ \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+\frac{q_g}{C}&=0\\ \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )&=-\frac{q_g}{C}\\ \int \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )&=-\int \frac{q_g}{C}\\ \text{For 1-D heat flow}\\ \frac{\partial T}{\partial x}&=\frac{dT }{\partial x}\\ T\frac{dT}{dx}&=-\frac{q_gx}{C}+C_1\\ x=0\;\;\frac{dT}{dx}&=0\;\;C_1=0 \text{ (At centerline)}\\ T\frac{dT}{dx}&=-\frac{q_gx}{C}\\ \int TdT&=\int -\frac{q_gx}{C}dx\\ \frac{T^2}{2}&=\frac{-q_gx^2}{2C}+C_2 . . .

\frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( K_x\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+\frac{\partial }{\partial y}\left ( K_y\frac{\partial T}{\partial y} \right )\frac{\partial }{\partial z}\left ( K_z\frac{\partial T}{\partial z} \right )+q_g=\rho c\frac{\partial T}{\partial t}
For one dimensional steady state heat generation with variable thermal conductivity, the above equation can be written as
\begin{aligned} \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( CT\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+q_g&=0\\ C\frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+q_g&=0\\ \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )+\frac{q_g}{C}&=0\\ \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )&=-\frac{q_g}{C}\\ \int \frac{\partial }{\partial x}\left ( T\frac{\partial T}{\partial x} \right )&=-\int \frac{q_g}{C}\\ \text{For 1-D heat flow}\\ \frac{\partial T}{\partial x}&=\frac{dT }{\partial x}\\ T\frac{dT}{dx}&=-\frac{q_gx}{C}+C_1\\ x=0\;\;\frac{dT}{dx}&=0\;\;C_1=0 \text{ (At centerline)}\\ T\frac{dT}{dx}&=-\frac{q_gx}{C}\\ \int TdT&=\int -\frac{q_gx}{C}dx\\ \frac{T^2}{2}&=\frac{-q_gx^2}{2C}+C_2 . . .
