Question: ( 2 ) Consider a plane wall of L = 2 5 c m thickness and conductivity of 5 W m K . The wall

(2) Consider a plane wall of L=25cm thickness and conductivity of 5WmK. The wall is
experiencing a uniform volumetric heat generation rate of 10 kW per cubic meter. The wall is
separating two flow environments as shown in the figure. The flow on the left has an undisturbed
temperature of 10C providing a convection coefficient of 20Wm2K, while the one on the right
has an undisturbed temperature of 20C providing a convection coefficient of 40Wm2K. The
right surface of the wall also looks at a large enclosure (surrounding surface) that is in thermal
equilibrium with the fluid away from the wall surface. Take the wall surface emissivity as 0.9.
a) By help of the approach taken for the first problem, obtain suitable set of equations for
determining the wall surface temperatures including the radiation effects.
b) What are the values of the wall surface temperatures? Use a root finding technique if
necessary.
T,2=50C
h2=10Wm2K
T,1=10C
h1=20Wm2K
L=0.25m
