A cylindrical electrical heating element is used to heat up a baking oven. The heating element bears a voltage of 120 V/m, and has an electrical resistance of 1000 Ω/m. A ceramic pipe of inside radius rin = 2 mm, and outside radius rout = 5 mm encases the heating element. Thermal conductivity of the ceramic is k = 0.2 W/m-K. Given that the oven air temperature is T∞ = 180oC and convection coefficient h = 10 W/m2-K, find the temperature on the inside of the ceramic pipe
