Question
Two bars, A and B, each of length 2.3 m and cross-sectional area 1.7 m2, are placed end to end as shown in the figure.
A
B
373 K
273 K
The thermal conductivities of the bars are
kA = 439 J/(s x m x K) and kB = 887 J/(s x m × K), respectively. The left end of bar A is maintained at 373K while the right end of B is
maintained at 273 K.
What is the rate of heat transfer (in W) through this combination?
