2) The switch in the circuit below has been closed a long time. At t=0, it is opened.

saul85 [17]

Answer:

il(t) = e^(-100t)

Explanation:

The current from the source when the switch is closed is the current through an equivalent load of 15 + 50║50 = 15+25 = 40 ohms. That is, it is 80/40 = 2 amperes. That current is split evenly between the two parallel 50-ohm resistors, so the initial inductor current is 2/2 = 1 ampere.

The time constant is L/R = 0.20/20 = 0.01 seconds. Then the decaying current is described by ...

il(t) = e^(-t/.01)

il(t) = e^(-100t) . . . amperes

Write the heat equation for each of the following cases:

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) the steady-state, 1-D incompressible and no energy generation equation can be expressed as follows:

$\dfrac{\partial^2T}{\partial x^2}= \ 0 \ ; \ if \ T = f(x) \\ \\ \dfrac{\partial^2T}{\partial y^2}= \ 0 \ ; \ if \ T = f(y) \\ \\ \dfrac{\partial^2T}{\partial z^2}= \ 0 \ ; \ if \ T = f(z)$

b) For a transient, 1-D, constant with energy generation

suppose T = f(x)

Then; the equation can be expressed as:

$\dfrac{\partial^2T}{\partial x^2} + \dfrac{Q_g}{k} = \dfrac{1}{\alpha} \dfrac{dT}{dC}$

where;

$Q_g$ = heat generated per unit volume

$\alpha$ = Thermal diffusivity

c) The heat equation for a cylinder steady-state with 2-D constant and no compressible energy generation is:

$\dfrac{1}{r}\times \dfrac{\partial}{\partial r }( r* \dfrac{\partial \ T }{\partial \ r}) + \dfrac{\partial^2 T}{\partial z^2 }= 0$

where;

The radial directional term = $\dfrac{1}{r}\times \dfrac{\partial}{\partial r }( r* \dfrac{\partial \ T }{\partial \ r})$ and the axial directional term is $\dfrac{\partial^2 T}{\partial z^2 }$

d) The heat equation for a wire going through a furnace is:

$\dfrac{\partial ^2 T}{\partial z^2} = \dfrac{1}{\alpha}\Big [\dfrac{\partial ^2 T}{\partial ^2 t}+ V_z \dfrac{\partial ^2T}{\partial ^2z} \Big ]$

since;

the steady-state is zero, Then:

$\dfrac{\partial ^2 T}{\partial z^2} = \dfrac{1}{\alpha}\Big [ V_z \dfrac{\partial ^2T}{\partial ^2z} \Big ]$ '

e) The heat equation for a sphere that is transient, 1-D, and incompressible with energy generation is:

$\dfrac{1}{r} \times \dfrac{\partial}{\partial r} \Big ( r^2 \times \dfrac{\partial T}{\partial r} \Big ) + \dfrac{Q_q}{K} = \dfrac{1}{\alpha}\times \dfrac{\partial T}{\partial t}$
