QN3. Consider the system in figure 3, involving 1-D radial heat conduction through the wall of a cylindrical pipe. The pipe is either insulated at both ends or is long enough (length,L) that end effects are negligible. Assume that there are no internal heat sources within the pipe wall. Given that the inner surface temperature T1 is greater than the outer surface temperature T2, heat will flow radially outward from the inner radius R1 to the outer radius R2.(a) Derive the expression for heat flow, Q. Show that the thermal resistance R, is expressed as
R=ln(r2r1)2kL
Hint: The differential equation governing heat diffusion is
1r*ddr(r*dTdr)=0
