derivation for the conduction equation in a sphere
We consider a spherical nuclear fuel element as shown in Fig. 10.3-1. It consists
of a sphere of fissionable material with radius RF', surrounded by a spherical shell of aluminium "cladding" with outer radius R"'. Inside the fuel element, fission fragments are produced that have very high kinetic energies. Collisions between these fragments and the atoms of the fissionable material provide the major source of thermal energy in the reactor. Such a volume source of thermal energy resulting from nuclear fission we call S,n,(cal/cm3. s). This source will not be uniform throughout the sphere of fissionable material; it will be the smallest at the centre of the sphere. For the purpose of this problem, we assume that the source can be approximated by a simple parabolic function
HEAT CONDUCTION WITH A
VISCOUS HEAT SOURCE
In most flow problems viscous heating is not important.
However if there are large velocity gradients, then it cannot be neglected. Examples of situations where viscous heating must be accounted for include: (i) flow of a lubricant between rapidly moving parts, (ii) flow of molten polymers through dies in high-speed extrusion, (iii) flow of highly viscous fluids in high-speed viscometers, and (iv) flow of air in the boundary layer near an earth satellite or rocket during re-entry into the earth's atmosphere. The first two of these are further complicated because many lubricants and molten plastics are non-Newtonian fluids. Viscous heating for non-Newtonian fluids is illustrated in Problem 10B.5.

HEAT CONDUCTION THROUGH COMPOSITE WALLS
Here we have generalized the formula to a system with n
slabs of material. Equations 10.6-15 and 16 are useful for calculating the heat transfer rate through a composite wall separating two fluid streams, when the heat transfer coefficients and thermal conductivities are known. The estimation of heat transfer coefficients is discussed in Chapter 14. In the above envelopment it has been tacitly assumed that the solid slabs are contiguous with no intervening "air spaces." If the solid surfaces touch each other only at several points, the resistance to heat transfer will be appreciably increased.
Quiz No: 4 and 5
1. Are gas viscosities and thermal
conductivities related? If so, how? 2. Compare the temperature dependence of the thermal conductivities of gases, liquids, and solids.
