1. Solve the boundary-value problem

+3 +8 ( )=0

(0) = 1, (1) = 2

at 9 interior points. (Using n = 10 and therefore ∆t = 0.1)

* MATLAB code

2. Consider a large plane wall of thickness L=0.2 m, thermal conductivity k=1.2

W/m·°C, and surface area A= 15 m2. The two sides of the wall are maintained at
constant temperatures of T1=120°C and T2=50°C. Determine the variation of
temperature within the wall and the value of temperature at x = 0.1 m under steady
conditions.

* Check the effect of reducing ∆x by developing a code.

3. Consider a large Uranium plate of thickness L=4 cm and thermal conductivity k=28
W/m·°C in which heat is generated uniformly at a constant rate of g·= 5 * 106 W/m3.
One side of the plate is maintained at 0°C by iced water while the other side is
subjected to convection to an environment at T∞=30°C with a heat transfer
coefficient of h= 45 W/m2 · °C. Considering a total of three equally spaced nodes in
the medium, two at the boundaries and one at the middle, estimate the exposed
surface temperature of the plate under steady conditions using the finite difference
approach.

4. Consider the heat equation

on an interval of length l, with constant thermal diffusivity > 0. We impose time-

dependent Dirichlet boundary conditions:

( , 0) = ( ), ( , ) = ( ), >0

fixing the temperature at the ends of the interval, along with the initial conditions:

(0, ) = ( ), 0≤ ≤

specifying the initial temperature distribution. Fix the diffusivity = 1 and the interval
length l = 1. Take a spatial step size of ∆x = 0.1 and ∆ = (∆ ) . Initial condition is
expressed as follows:
