Question: A steady - state, finite - difference analysis has been performed on a cylindrical fin with a diameter of D = 1 2 m m

A steady-state, finite-difference analysis has been performed on a cylindrical fin with a diameter of D=12mm and a thermal
conductivity of 15Wm*K. The convection process is characterized by a fluid temperature of T=25C and a heat transfer coefficient
of h=25Wm2* K. Assume T0=100.0C,T1=93.4C, and T2=89.5C
(a) The temperatures for the first three nodes, separated by a spatial increment of x=10mm, are given in the sketch. Determine the
fin heat rate.
(b) Determine the temperature at node 3,T3.
