Question: A 0 . 1 2 m thick wall, well - insulated on one side, is initially at a uniform temperature of 9 9 . 0

A 0.12 m thick wall, well-insulated on one side, is initially at a uniform temperature of 99.0C. Suddenly, the temperature of the uninsulated surface changes to 19.0C. Given the wall's thermal diffusivity of 1.5106m2/s1.5\times 10^{-6}\,\text{m}^2/\text{s}1.5106m2/s, use the explicit method with time step t=240s\Delta t =240\,\text{s}t=240s and spatial step x=30.0mm\Delta x =30.0\,\text{mm}x=30.0mm to solve for the temperature distribution in the wall after 16 minutes.
Determine:
The temperature T0T_0T0 at the insulated surface:
C (to 1 decimal place)
The temperature T1T_1T1 at the first point adjacent to the insulated surface:
C (to 1 decimal place)
The temperature T2T_2T2 at the next adjacent point:
C (to 1 decimal place)
The temperature T3T_3T3 at the point adjacent to the uninsulated surface:
C (to 1 decimal place)
The temperature T4T_4T4 at the uninsulated surface:
C (to 1 decimal place)
