A solid cylinder of radius R and length L is made from material with thermal conductivity 2.
Heat is generated inside the cylinder at a rate S (energy per unit volume per unit time).
(a) Neglecting conduction along the axis of the cylinder, find the steady-state temperature
distribution in the cylinder, given that the surface temperature is Ts.
(b) Consider a crude approximation of a mouse modeled as a cylinder of radius 1 cm and
length 5 cm. If the ambient air temperature is 10°C and the internal rate of heat
generation in the animal is 10-³ W/cm³, find the skin temperature (Ts) for the mouse. The
external heat-transfer coefficient is h = 0.2 W/m².K. (You can neglect conduction along
the axis of the mouse, as in part a.)
Consider the square channel shown in the sketch operating under steady state condition. The inner surface of the
channel is at a uniform temperature of 600 K and the outer surface is at a uniform temperature of 300 K. From a
symmetrical elemental of the channel, a two-dimensional grid has been constructed as in the right figure
below. The points are spaced by equal distance.

(a) The heat transfer from inside to outside is only by conduction across the channel wall. Beginning with
properly defined control volumes, derive the finite difference equations for locations 123. You can
also use (n, m) to represent row and column. For example, location Dis (3, 3), location is (3,1), and
location 3 is (3,5). (hint: I have already put a control volume around this locations with dashed boarder.)
