Reconsider the above problem. This time the thermal conductivity on the left and right sides is different as shown below. However, the heat transfer coefficients and ambient temperatures are the same. Determine the temperature profile in the slab. What is the surface temperature ? Does the surface temperature become equal to the case considered in class when the thermal conductivities are the same?
Expert Answer
The temperature profile in the slab can be determined using the same approach as before, i.e., by solving the heat equation with appropriate boundary
