SHOW ALL STEPS & CALCULATIONS
Problem (1): Consider a sphere of radius R. Initially at t=0 the temperature everywhere 0rR is zero. For t>0 the surface r=R is maintained at a temperature T0. Show that the transient temperature distribution T(t,r) within the sphere is given by
T(t,r)=T0+2T0Rrn=1(-1)nnsin(nrR)exp(-n22R2t);
where is the thermal diffusivity of sphere material. Further show that the volumetric averaged temperature (:T:) is given by
(:T:)=T0-6T02n=11n2exp(-n22R2t)
