Problem 2. Consider two adjacent objects, in which the thermal capacitances of the objects are C1 and C2, respectively. Assume that the temperatures of both objects are uniform, and they are T1 and T2, respectively. The heat flow rate into object 1 is q0, and the temperature surrounding object 2 is TO. There are two modes of heat transfer involved, conduction between the objects and convection between object 2 and the air. The corresponding thermal resistances are R1 and R2, respectively.
Build a Simscape model of this physical system using figure below and find the temperature outputs T1(t) and T2(t). Use default values for the blocks of Thermal Mass (mass =1 kg , specific heat =447J*Kkg, and initial temperature =300K), Conductive Heat Transfer (area =110-4m2, thickness =0.1 m , and thermal conductivity =401Wm*K), and Convective Heat Transfer (area =110-4m2 and heat transfer coefficient =20Wm2*K). Assume that the heat flow rate is q0=400Js and the surrounding temperature is T0=298K.
Hint: To create Simscape model type "ssc_new" in MATLAB command window. To find the elements of Thermal Simscape library click anywhere in the model, and in the search window, type the name of the element.
