You are designing a chamber to contain the radiation emitted by nuclear decay during a fusion reaction. The left face of the (plane) chamber wall (x = 0) is exposed to the radiation and the right face of the wall (x = L) is perfectly insulated. To facilitate the fusion reaction, the left face of the wall is maintained at fixed temperature To. The radiation penetrates the wall causing uniform heat generation that varies with location inside the wall as à(x) = 40 (1 - 1) where do [W/m^3] is a constant. Determine an expression for the temperature distribution in the wall T(x) assuming the thermal conductivity of the wall (k) is constant.

One face of a pure copper plate 3 cm thick is maintained at 400-C, and the other face is maintained at 100-C. How much heat is transferred through the plate per area?
Heat Treatment Steel plates 40 cm per side and 1 cm thick are heat treated in a static oven. Inside the oven there is a shelf where 10 separate plates are placed, in such a way that the heat treatment of one does not affect the treatment of the others. The oven is electric and emits radiation heat towards the plates. In the oven an atmosphere with nitrogen is generated to avoid the oxidation of the material, this gas acts as a convective medium on the plates. Before being placed in the oven, the plates are at room temperature of 25 ° C. The heat treatment of the plates begins with a preheating. At this stage, the combined convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient in the oven is 46 W / m2- ° C. During preheating, the oven controls the internal temperature with a quadratic compensation, therefore, the walls and the nitrogen atmosphere have a temperature Th that varies according to the expression: Th = a + bt2 where a = 750 °C, b = 3 x 10- 5°C/ s2 and t is the time in seconds.…
