Problem \#3: Heat is transferred by conduction (in one dimension) along the axial direction through a truncated conical section shown below. If the two surfaces are held at different temperatures T1 and T2. Evaluate the heat flux qx and the temperature profile in the axial direction (T(x)) : a) When the thermal conductivity is constant. b) If thermal conductivity varies as k=k0aT, where a is a constant. c) With a constant thermal conductivity, the rate of heat generation (q0) is constant within the system. d) If thermal conductivity is constant and the rate of heat generation is given as: q= q0(1lx)
