1. Solve the 1D heat conduction equation without a source term
The \( 1 \mathrm{D} \) heat conduction equation without a sour

1. Solve the 1D heat conduction equation without a source term The heat conduction equation without a source term can be written as: Where is the thermal conductivity, the temperature and the spatial coordinate. Using the Finite Volume Method, use this equation to solve for the temperature in a rod. The rod has a length of , a cross-section area of , the thermal conductivity is , and the temperatures at the ends are held constant at and , respectively. 2. Solve the heat conduction equation with a source term. The 1D heat conduction equation with a source term can be written as: With being the source term. Using the Finite Volume Method, use this equation to solve for the temperature across the thickness of a flat plate of thickness . The thermal conductivity is , and the temperatures at the two ends are held constant at and , respectively. An electric current creates a constant heat source of B. Solve the 1D convection-diffusion problem The 1D convection-diffusion problem can be written as: With the property that is being transported, the convection speed, the diffusivity and the density. The length of the domain is , the density is , the diffusivity . Determine the distribution of for the following cases. i. using 5 cells ii. using 5 cells. iii. using 20 cells For all above 3 questions, please provide workouts and MatLab codes The MatLab code(s) (eg. myFVM.m)
