system materials are as follows : k = 231 W/m.K, c = 1033 J/kg.K and the density = 2702 kg/m^3. The gases to be cooled has a temperature
equals to 500 C. Determine the temperature of the system that corresponds to 10 % of the maximum possible heat transfer between the
gas and the system. Consider that the system has a characteristic length equals to 0.03 m. The heat convective coefficient is equal to 50

and surface area A = 12 m². The left side of the wall at x=0 is subjected to a net heat
flux of ɖo = 700 W/m² while the temperature at that surface is measured to be T₁ =
80°C. Assuming constant thermal conductivity and no heat generation in the wall, (a)
express the differential equation and the boundary equations for steady one-
