A 1-cm-thick, 1-m-square steel plate is exposed to sunlight and absorbs a solar flux of 800 W/m2.

Question:

A 1-cm-thick, 1-m-square steel plate is exposed to sunlight and absorbs a solar flux of 800 W/m2. The bottom of the plate is insulated, the edges are maintained at 20?C by water-cooled clamps, and the exposed face is cooled by a convection coefficient of 10 W/(m2 K) to an ambient temperature of 10?C. The plate is polished to minimize reradiation. Determine the temperature distribution in the plate using a node spacing of 20 cm. The thermal conductivity of the steel is 40 W/(m K).GIVENSquare plate with water-cooled edges exposed to solar fluxASSUMPTIONS(a) Neglect temperature gradients through the platethickness
