The above image represents steady-state conduction through a plane wall with
energy generation. You know that the thermal conductivity of the wall is k=86
(W)/(m-K) and the value of g^() is 425000(W)/(m^(3)). The spacing between the nodes
is 0.030 m and the heat transfer equation governing the internal nodes is
(d^(2)T)/(dx^(2))+((g^()))/(k)=0
If you are given that T1=824K and T2=793K, determine the temperature at node
7(in K) using finite difference methods. Be sure to carry plenty of decimals as your
answer must fall within a 0.5% tolerance.
