Question:

Consider a large 5-cm-thick brass plate (k = 111 W/m·K) in which heat is generated uniformly at a rate of 2 × 10⁵ W/m³. One side of the plate is insulated while the other side is exposed to an environment at 25°C with a heat transfer coefficient of 44 W/m²·K. Explain where in the plate the highest and the lowest temperatures will occur, and determine their values.
