3.68 Consider one-dimensional conduction in a plane com-
posite wall. The outer surfaces are exposed to a fluid at
25C and a convection heat transfer coefficient of 1000
Wm2*K. The middle wall B experiences uniform heat
generation qB, while there is no generation in walls
A and C . The temperatures at the interfaces are T1=
261C and T2=211C.
kA=25Wm*K,LA=30mm
kC=50Wm*K,LB=30mm
,LC=20mm
(a) Assuming negligible contact resistance at the inter-
faces, determine the volumetric heat generation qB
and the thermal conductivity kB.
(b) Plot the temperature distribution, showing its impor-
tant features.
(c) Consider conditions corresponding to a loss of
coolant at the exposed surface of material
0. Determine T1 and T2 and plot the temperature
distribution throughout the system.
