A large 100-mm thick steel plate is initially at uniform temperature T = 180°C at
time t = 0. Both sides of the plate are exposed to 30°C oil with convection coefficient
h = 1500 W/m².K. The thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and density of the steel are

a) Find the temperature at the center of the slab when t = 125 s.
b) Find the temperature at the surface of the slab when t=125 s.
In the design of a certain computer application, a heat flow simulation is required. In the
simulation, the heat conductor, which is of length 10m, has a perfectly insulated surface.
The temperature at both ends of the conductor is kept consistently at zero. The initial
temperature at any point of the conductor is uniform at 25°C.
