Question: Consider the one-dimensional wall shown in the sketch, which is initially at a uniform temperature T j and is suddenly subjected to the convection boundary

Consider the one-dimensional wall shown in the sketch, which is initially at a uniform temperature T j and is suddenly subjected to the convection boundary condition with a fluid at T.

Wall, Tx, 0) = T;, k, a -Insulation T, h T; (°C) (W/m · K) (°C) (m²/s) (W/m² · K) Case (m) 15 × 10-6 0.10 50 300

For a particular wall, case 1, the temperature at x = L1 after t1 = 100s is T(L1, t1) = 315°C. Another wall, case 2, has different thickness and thermal conditions as shown below. How long will it take for the second wall to reach 28.5°C at the position x = L2? Use as the basis for analysis, the dimensionless functional dependence for the transient temperature distribution expressed in Equation 5.38.

Wall, Tx, 0) = T;, k, a -Insulation T, h T; (C) (W/m K) (C) (m/s) (W/m K) Case (m) 15 10-6 0.10 50 300 400 200 25 x 10-6 20 0.40 100 30 100
