Question: Part II ( 7 0 pt ) In a steady - state heat transfer problem ( Figure 2 ) , the temperatures at 1 0

Part II (70 pt) In a steady-state heat transfer problem (Figure 2), the temperatures at 10 nodal
points (T1,T2,T3,dots,T10) can be calculated using the following equations (R : thermal resistance
and c

Present your answers using at least eight decimal places.
(a) Express the system of the linear equations in the form ofAT=b.(TT=[T1T2T3dotsT10])
Find the coefficient matrix A and the nonhomogeneous vector b.(using 'for', 'if'
statements the code can be much reduced).
(b) Find the temperatures at nodes 1-10, solving the system of the linear equations by the
Gauss elimination method with MATLAB code.
Now, solve the system of linear equations by iterative methods using MATLAB code. Use
the convergence criterion =10-8. The maximum absolute value ofTi will be compared with
(Ti=Ti(k+1)-Ti(k)).
(c) Find the temperatures using Jacobi iteration and the number of iterations.
(d) Find the temperatures using Gauss-Seidel iteration and the number of iterations.
(e) Find the temperatures using the successive-over-relaxation (SOR) method. Test at
least 5 relaxation factors, (>1) and find that can lead to the least number of
iterations.
