First Law:

d E st
dT
= V C
= E& in E& out + E& g
dt
dt
Assuming energy outflow due to convection and radiation and with
inflow due to an applied heat flux qs,

V C

dT
= q's',h As ,h hAs ,c ( T T ) hs ,r As ,r ( T Tsur ) + E& g
dt

Is this expression applicable in situations for which convection and/or

radiation provide for energy inflow?
May h and hr be assumed to be constant throughout the transient process?
How must such an equation be solved?
