Question: A component with thickness L and thermal conductivity k has one side adiabatic and the other exposed to ambient temperature Ti with a heat transfer

A component with thickness L and thermal conductivity k has one side adiabatic and the other exposed to ambient temperature Ti with a heat transfer h. It also generates internal heat q.
- Determine T(x), the temperature distribution across the wall using 1-D heat conduction. This involves q, L, k, h, and Ti
- Demonstrate how maximum temperature is q*L^2/2k + q*L/k + Ti
- Sketch the temperature profile T(x) along the wall highlighting the point of the maximum temperature
