2 A long constant area fin is initially at a uniform temperature T. At time t0 the temperature at the base is heated with uniform q flux q. The fin begins to exchange heat by x 0 h,T convection with the surroundings. The heat transfer coefficient is h and the ambient temperature is T. Use a second-degree polynomial temperature profile to determine the base temperature. 2 A long constant area fin is initially at a uniform temperature T.
