1. An infinite parallel-sided slab of non-dimensional thickness L 1, has an initial (at non-
dimensional time t= 0) temperature distribution To (x) given in below. Its left and right
ends are subsequently (for t> 0) maintained at temperatures T1, and T2, respectively.
The initial temperature distribution is given by T.(x) = 250*x*sin(rx) K, and the
boundary temperatures for t> 0 are: T = 50K and T2 = 100K. Use 10 intervals in the x-
direction, and At = 0.01.
(a) Write the equations you'll be using to solve the problem in matrix form, using the
implicit method. The coefficient matrix and the right-hand-side vector should show
numerical values. Do not write every value, but use the matrix representation given in the
presentation slides so you can fit the answer in the width of the page. Your equations
should be for solution at time level (n=2), where n = Irepresents time t = 0.
