Problem 22 A rod, 30 cm long has its ends A and B kept at 200 C and 800 C
respectively, until steady state conditions prevail. The temperature at each end is reduced
to 00 C suddenly and kept so. Find the resulting temperature function u ( x, t ) .
Solution:
2
∂u 2 ∂ u
The equation is =∂
∂t ∂x 2
In steady- state conditions, the temperature at any particular point does not varies
with time. This any particular point does not very with time. This means that u depends
only on x and not on time
∴ The P.D.E. recluses to
∂ 2u
= 0 ⇒ u = ax + b
∂x 2
The initial conditions is steady state and
u (0, t) = 20 and
u (30, t) = 80
Sine in steady state u is independent of time
u ( 0 ) = 20 & u ( 30 ) = 80
∴ we get a = 2, b = 20
i.e. u (x) = 2x + 20
When the temperature at A and B are reduced to zero, the temperature distribution
changes. For this transiat state the boundary conditions are
(i ) u ( 0, t ) = 0 V t≥0
(ii ) u (l, t ) = 0 V t≥0
and the initial temperature distribution is
(iii ) u ( x, 0 ) = 2 x + 20 0 ≤ x ≤ 30
Now we have to find u (x, t) satisfying the conditions (i), (ii) & (iii)
The suitable solution is
2
p 2t
u ( x, t ) = ( A cos px + B sin px ) e−α
Using (i) we get A = 0
2
p 2t
∴ solution is u ( x, t ) = B sin px e−α

Using (ii) get P =
30
2 2
π t
nπ x −α 2 n900
∴ u ( x, t ) = B sin e

The most general solution is

u ( x, t ) = ∑ Bn sin e
30

u ( x, 0 ) = ∑ Bn

Problem 23 The temperature at one end of a bar 20 cm long and with insulated sides is
kept at 00 C until steady state conditions prevail. The two ends are then suddenly
insulated, so that the temperature gradient is zero at each end there after. Find the
temperature distribution in the bar.
Solution:
When steady state conditions prevail, the temperature boundary conditions for
steady state are
u (0) = 0, u (20) = 60
Solution is u (x) = ax + b
u (0) = a 0 + b
⇒0=b
u (20) = 60
60 = a ( 20 ) + b
= 20a + 0
a=3
∴ u ( x ) = Bx = 0 = 3x
Since the ends are insulated after the steady state is attended, the heat flow is transient
and the sub sequent temperature distribution is given by

∂u ∂ 2u

The corresponding boundary conditions are

0= = Bpe− p α t = 0
∂x
Either B = 0 or P = 0
If P = 0, u (x, t) = A which is absurd
∴B=0
∴ Solution is
2 2
u ( x, t ) = A cos pxe − p α t

either A = 0 or sin 20p = 0

Problem 24 A bar, 10 cm long with insulated sides, has its ends A and B kept at 200 C
and 800 C respectively, until steady state conditions prevail. The temperature at A is
then suddenly raised to 500 C and at the same time that at B is lowered to 100 C . Find
the subsequent temperature function u ( x, t ) at any time.

∂x 2
⇒ u = ax + b
The boundary conditions for steady state is
u ( 0 ) = 20 ⇒ 20 = a ( 0 ) + b ⇒ b = 20
u (10 ) = 40 ⇒ 40 = a (10 ) + 20 ⇒ a = 2
When the temperatures at A and B are changed, the state is no longer steady. The
boundary conditions are
u ( 0, t ) = 50 V t>0
u ( 0, t ) = 40 V t > 0 and the initial conditions is
u ( x, 0 ) = 2 x + 20 0 < x < 10
Since we have non-zero boundary conditions ,we adopt a modified procedure
We break up the required solution u (x, t) in to two parts as u ( x, t ) = us ( x ) + ut ( x, t )
Where us ( x ) is called the steady state solution and ut ( x, t ) is called the transient.
∂ 2us
Solution us ( x ) is given by =0
∂x 2
us (0) = 50 and have
us (10) = 10
Solving us (x) = 50 – 4x
Consequently,
ut ( 0, t ) = u ( 0, t ) − us ( 0 ) = 50 − 50 = 0
ut (10, t ) = u (10, t ) − us (10 ) = 10 − 10 = 0
and ut ( x, 0 ) = u ( x, 0 ) + us ( x ) = ( 2 x + 20 ) − ( 50 − 4 x )

Now we have to set ut ( n, t ) in such a way that ut ( x, t ) satisfies = α 2 2 with the

other end B at 1000 C until steady state conditions prevail. At time t = 0 , the temperature

Two dimensional heat equation

Problem 26 An infinitely long metal plate in the form of an area is enclosed between
the lines y = 0 and y = π for positive values of x . The temperature is zero along the
edges y = 0 and y = π and the edge at infinity. If the edge x = 0 is kept at temperature
ky , find the steady state temperature distribution in the plate.
Solution:
The steady state temperature u (x, y) at any point (x, y) of the plate is given by the
equation
∂ 2u ∂ 2u
+ = 0 with the following boundary conditions :
∂x 2 ∂y 2
i. u ( x,0 ) = 0 V n>0
ii. u ( x, π ) = 0 V n>0
iii. u ( ∞, y ) = 0 V0 ≤ y ≤π
iv. u ( 0, y ) = ky 0≤ y ≤π

The three possible solutions of the PDE are


a. u ( x, y ) = ( C1e px + C2 e − px ) ( C3 cos py + C4 sin py )
b. u ( x, y ) = ( C5 cos px + C6 sin px ) ( C7 e py + C8 e− py )
c. u ( x, y ) = ( C9 x + C10 )( C11 y + C12 )
Consider (b)
u ( x, y ) = ( C5 cos px + C6 sin px ) ( C7 e py + C8 e− py )
by cond (i)
u ( x, y ) = ( C5 cos px + C6 sin px )( C7 + C8 ) = 0
⇒ C7 + C8 = 0 - (1)
u ( x, π ) = ( C5 cos px + C6 sin px ) ( C7 e pπ + C8e − pπ ) = 0 - (2)
Solving (1) and (2) we get C7 = C8 = 0 which will lead to trivial solution.
∴ is not the correct solution
The suitable solution is
u ( x, y ) = ( Ae px + Be − px ) ( C cos py + D sin py )
Condition (1)
⇒ u ( x, 0 ) = ( Ae px + Be − px ) C = 0
∴C = 0
∴ u ( x, y ) = ( Ae px + Be− px ) D sin py

c. u ( x, y ) = ( Ax + B )( Cy + D )

The equation is + = 0 and the boundary conditions are

i. u ( 0, y ) = 0
ii. u (10, y ) = 0
iii. u ( x, ∞ ) = 0
iv. u ( x, 0 ) = f ( x )
Consider (a)
u ( x, y ) = ( Ae px + Be − px ) ( C cos py + D sin py )
u ( 0, y ) = ( A + B )( C cos py + D sin py ) = 0
⇒ A= B=0 −(1)
u (10, y ) = ( Ae10 p

⇒ Ae10 p + Be −10 p = 0
Solving (1) and (2), we get A = 0, B = 0
Which will give use the trivial solution
∴ (a) is not the correct solution.
Consider (C) u ( x, y ) = ( Ax + B )( Cy + D )
u ( 0, y ) = B ( Cy + D ) = 0 ⇒B=0
u ( 0, y ) = 0 10 A ( Cy + D ) = 0 ⇒ A = 0

Condition (i) ⇒
u ( 0, y ) = A ( Ce py + De− py ) = 0 ⇒ A = 0
∴ Solution is u ( x, y ) = B sin px ( Ce py + De− py )

( c ) u ( x, y ) = ( c9 x + c10 )( c11 y + c12 )
Out of these three solutions the correct solution which satisfies our boundary conditions (
as explained in Ex.[1] is
u ( x, y ) = ( c1 cos px + c2 sin px ) ( c3e py + c4 e − py ) .....(2)
Applying condition (i) in (2), we get,
u ( 0, y ) = c1 ( c3e py + c4 e− py ) = 0
i.e., c1 = 0 …….(3)
Substituting (3) in (2), we get,
u ( x, y ) = c2 sin px ( c3e py + c4 e − py )
Applying condition (ii) in (4), we get,
u ( a, y ) = c2 sin pa ( c3e py + c4 e− py ) = 0
Here c2 ≠ 0 since if c2 = 0 we get trivial solution.
Hence sin pa=0, i.e., pa = nπ

(or) p =

Problem 30 A rectangular plate is bounded by the lines x = 0 , x = a , y = 0 and y = b .


Its surfaces are insulated the temperatures along x = 0 and y = 0 are kept at 00 C and the
others at 1000 C . Find the steady state temperature at any point of the plate.
Solution:
Let u ( x, y ) be the temperature satisfying the equation
∂ 2 u ∂ 2u
+ =0 − (1)
∂x 2 ∂y 2
Then the boundary conditions are given by
(i) u ( 0, y ) = 0 for 0 ≤ y < b
(ii) u ( x, 0 ) = 0 for 0 ≤ x < a
(iii) u ( a, y ) = 100 for 0 < x < b
(iv) u ( x, b ) = 100 for 0 < x < a
we split the solutions into two solution
i.e., u ( x, y ) = u ( x, y ) + u2 ( x, y )
where u1 ( x, y ) = 0 and u2 ( x, y ) are solutions of (1) and furthers u1 ( x, y ) is the
temperature at any point p with the edge BC maintained at 100o and the other three edges
at ooC . Where u2 ± ( x, y ) is the temperature at P with the edge AB maintained at 100o C
and the other edges at ooC .
Therefore the boundary conditions for the function u1 ( x, y ) and u2 ( x, y ) are as follows.
(i) u1 ( 0, y ) = 0 , 0 ≤ y ≤ b
(ii) u1 ( x, 0 ) = 0 , 0 ≤ x ≤ a
(iii) u1 ( a, y ) = 0 , 0 ≤ x ≤ b
(iv) u ( x, b ) = 100 , 0 ≤ x ≤ a

(i) u2 ( 0, y ) = 0 , 0 ≤ y ≤ b
(ii) u2 ( x, 0 ) = 0 , 0 ≤ x ≤ a
(iii) u2 ( a, y ) = 100 , 0 ≤ x ≤ b

(iv) u2 ( x, b ) = 0 , 0 ≤ x ≤ a

clearly both u1 and u2 satisfy the equation (1) solving (1) and choosing the suitable
solution we have, u1 ( x, y ) = (A cospx + B sin px ) ( ce py + De − py ) ………..(2)
using cond (i) in (2) u1 ( 0, y ) = A ( ce py + De − py ) = 0
= >A= 0
∴ u1 ( x, y ) = B sin px ( ce py + De − py ) ……………..(3)
using cond (iii) in (3)
u2 ( x, 0) = B sin pa ( ce py + De − py ) = 0
=>sin pa = 0
pa = nπ
