Question: Question 1 ) [ 3 5 Pts ] Consider a large plane wall ( See the Figure ) of thickness L = 0 . 3

Question 1)[35 Pts]
Consider a large plane wall (See the Figure) of thickness L=0.3m, a thermal
conductivity of 1.2Wm.K The width and the height of the plane are 3 m and 5 m
respectively. The two sides of the wall are maintained at constant temperatures of
T1=130C and T2=40C respectively. Heat transfer is in the x -direction only.
A) Write the differential equation describing the heat transfer. [6 Pts]
B) Mention the boundary conditions. [4 Pts]
C) Derivethe algebraic expression that estimates temperature T.[15 Pts]
D) Determine the temperature at the middle of the wall (at x=0.15m).[5 Pts]
E) In case the two sides were not maintained at constant temperatures, what would be
the differential equation describing this heat transfer? [5 Pts]
