Question: 5 . ( 1 5 ) Let's consider a brick wall again, this time in transient mode. The wall is initially at 1 0 C

5.(15) Let's consider a brick wall again, this time in transient mode. The wall is initially at 10 C . At \(\mathrm{t}=0\) the sun comes up and strikes the wall giving it a constant heat flux of 750\(\mathrm{W}/\mathrm{m}^{2}\) into the wall. The wall is 20 cm thick. Ignore convection for this problem, and also ignore radiation leaving the wall. This is an approximation we make to simplify the problem.
At what time is the Fo \(=0.1\)? For times shorter than that we can use the semi-infinite approximation.
Plot the wall temperature profile at that time (T(x) vs. x\()\).
What is the surface temperature of the wall at that time? (note that this calculation ignores the heat losses from the wall, which would lower the temperature)
