A hollow infinite cylinder has internal radius 0.5 and exterior radius 2.0. The external surface is maintained at 0°C and the internal surface at 100°C. Initially the cylinder has a uniform temperature of 15°C and it is required to compute the distribution of temperature across the radius as time progresses. Use an explicit method with a suitable time step to compute the temperature for r = 0.5(0.25)2.0 for the first few time steps.
