tatuchka [14]

Answer:

solution:

dT/dx =T2-T1/L

&

q_x = -k*(dT/dx)

<u>Case (1)  </u>

dT/dx= (-20-50)/0.35==> -280 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(-280)*10^3==>14 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (3)

q_x  =-50*(160)*10^3==>-8 kW

T2=T1+dT/dx*L=70+160*0.25==> 110° C

Case (4)

q_x  =-50*(-80)*10^3==>4 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=40+80*0.25==> 60° C

Case (5)

q_x  =-50*(200)*10^3==>-10 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=30-200*0.25==> -20° C
