1. A large plane wall of thickness L= 0.4 m and thermal conductivity k = 7.6 W/m C. The temperature at
x = 0 in unknown but constant. However, the outer surface of the wall at x = L, is 0.6, is known to
exchange heat by convection with ambient air at T

= 27C with an average heat transfer coefficient of


h = 19 W/m2 C plus radiation with the surrounding surfaces at an average temperature of T
surr
= 295K.
The temperature of the outer surface is measured to be T
2
=50C. Assuming steady one-dimensional
heat transfer,
(a) Express the differential equation and the boundary conditions for heat conduction through the plate,
(b) Obtain a relation for the temperature of the outer surface of the plate by solving the differential
equation, and
(c) Evaluate the inner surface temperature of the wall at x = 0 and x =0.25m.
