Introduction
2-1C The term steady implies no change with time at any point within the medium while transient implies variation with
time or time dependence. Therefore, the temperature or heat flux remains unchanged with time during steady heat transfer
through a medium at any location although both quantities may vary from one location to another. During transient heat
transfer, the temperature and heat flux may vary with time as well as location. Heat transfer is one-dimensional if it occurs
primarily in one direction. It is two-dimensional if heat tranfer in the third dimension is negligible.
2-2C Heat transfer is a vector quantity since it has direction as well as magnitude. Therefore, we must specify both direction
and magnitude in order to describe heat transfer completely at a point. Temperature, on the other hand, is a scalar quantity.
2-3C Yes, the heat flux vector at a point P on an isothermal surface of a medium has to be perpendicular to the surface at that
point.
2-4C Isotropic materials have the same properties in all directions, and we do not need to be concerned about the variation of
properties with direction for such materials. The properties of anisotropic materials such as the fibrous or composite
materials, however, may change with direction.
2-5C In heat conduction analysis, the conversion of electrical, chemical, or nuclear energy into heat (or thermal) energy in
solids is called heat generation.
2-6C The phrase โthermal energy generationโ is equivalent to โheat generation,โ and they are used interchangeably. They
imply the conversion of some other form of energy into thermal energy. The phrase โenergy generation,โ however, is vague
since the form of energy generated is not clear.
2-7C The heat transfer process from the kitchen air to the refrigerated space is
transient in nature since the thermal conditions in the kitchen and the refrigerator,
in general, change with time. However, we would analyze this problem as a
steady heat transfer problem under the worst anticipated conditions such as the
lowest thermostat setting for the refrigerated space, and the anticipated highest
temperature in the kitchen (the so-called design conditions). If the compressor is
large enough to keep the refrigerated space at the desired temperature setting
under the presumed worst conditions, then it is large enough to do so under all
conditions by cycling on and off. Heat transfer into the refrigerated space is
three-dimensional in nature since heat will be entering through all six sides of the
refrigerator. However, heat transfer through any wall or floor takes place in the
direction normal to the surface, and thus it can be analyzed as being onedimensional. Therefore, this problem can be simplified greatly by considering the
heat transfer to be onedimensional at each of the four sides as well as the top and
bottom sections, and then by adding the calculated values of heat transfer at each
surface.

2-8C Heat transfer through the walls, door, and the top and bottom sections of an oven is transient in nature since the thermal
conditions in the kitchen and the oven, in general, change with time. However, we would analyze this problem as a steady
heat transfer problem under the worst anticipated conditions such as the highest temperature setting for the oven, and the
anticipated lowest temperature in the kitchen (the so called โdesignโ conditions). If the heating element of the oven is large
enough to keep the oven at the desired temperature setting under the presumed worst conditions, then it is large enough to do
so under all conditions by cycling on and off.
Heat transfer from the oven is three-dimensional in nature since heat will be entering through all six sides of the
oven. However, heat transfer through any wall or floor takes place in the direction normal to the surface, and thus it can be
analyzed as being one-dimensional. Therefore, this problem can be simplified greatly by considering the heat transfer as being
one- dimensional at each of the four sides as well as the top and bottom sections, and then by adding the calculated values of
heat transfers at each surface.
2-9C Heat transfer to a potato in an oven can be modeled as one-dimensional since temperature differences (and thus heat
transfer) will exist in the radial direction only because of symmetry about the center point. This would be a transient heat
transfer process since the temperature at any point within the potato will change with time during cooking. Also, we would
use the spherical coordinate system to solve this problem since the entire outer surface of a spherical body can be described
by a constant value of the radius in spherical coordinates. We would place the origin at the center of the potato.
2-10C Assuming the egg to be round, heat transfer to an egg in boiling water can be modeled as one-dimensional since
temperature differences (and thus heat transfer) will primarily exist in the radial direction only because of symmetry about the
center point. This would be a transient heat transfer process since the temperature at any point within the egg will change
with time during cooking. Also, we would use the spherical coordinate system to solve this problem since the entire outer
surface of a spherical body can be described by a constant value of the radius in spherical coordinates. We would place the
origin at the center of the egg.
2-11C Heat transfer to a hot dog can be modeled as two-dimensional since temperature differences (and thus heat transfer)
will exist in the radial and axial directions (but there will be symmetry about the center line and no heat transfer in the
azimuthal direction. This would be a transient heat transfer process since the temperature at any point within the hot dog will
change with time during cooking. Also, we would use the cylindrical coordinate system to solve this problem since a cylinder
is best described in cylindrical coordinates. Also, we would place the origin somewhere on the center line, possibly at the
center of the hot dog. Heat transfer in a very long hot dog could be considered to be one-dimensional in preliminary
calculations.
2-12C Heat transfer to a roast beef in an oven would be transient since the temperature at any point within the roast will
change with time during cooking. Also, by approximating the roast as a spherical object, this heat transfer process can be
modeled as one-dimensional since temperature differences (and thus heat transfer) will primarily exist in the radial direction
because of symmetry about the center point.
2-13C Heat loss from a hot water tank in a house to the surrounding medium can be considered to be a steady heat transfer
problem. Also, it can be considered to be two-dimensional since temperature differences (and thus heat transfer) will exist in
the radial and axial directions (but there will be symmetry about the center line and no heat transfer in the azimuthal
direction.)

2-14C Heat transfer to a canned drink can be modeled as two-dimensional since temperature differences (and thus heat
transfer) will exist in the radial and axial directions (but there will be symmetry about the center line and no heat transfer in
the azimuthal direction. This would be a transient heat transfer process since the temperature at any point within the drink will
change with time during heating. Also, we would use the cylindrical coordinate system to solve this problem since a cylinder

center of the bottom surface.

Assumptions Heat is generated uniformly in the resistance wire.
Analysis An 800 W iron will convert electrical energy into
heat in the wire at a rate of 800 W. Therefore, the rate of heat
generation in a resistance wire is simply equal to the power
rating of a resistance heater. Then the rate of heat generation in
the wire per unit volume is determined by dividing the total rate
of heat generation by the volume of the wire to be

Boundary and Initial Conditions; Formulation of Heat Conduction Problems
2-35C The mathematical expressions of the thermal conditions at the boundaries are called the boundary conditions. To
describe a heat transfer problem completely, two boundary conditions must be given for each direction of the coordinate
system along which heat transfer is significant. Therefore, we need to specify four boundary conditions for two-dimensional
problems.
2-36C The mathematical expression for the temperature distribution of the medium initially is called the initial condition.
We need only one initial condition for a heat conduction problem regardless of the dimension since the conduction equation is
first order in time (it involves the first derivative of temperature with respect to time). Therefore, we need only 1 initial
condition for a two-dimensional problem.
2-37C A heat transfer problem that is symmetric about a plane, line, or point is said to have thermal symmetry about that
plane, line, or point. The thermal symmetry boundary condition is a mathematical expression of this thermal symmetry. It is
equivalent to insulation or zero heat flux boundary condition, and is expressed at a point x0 as ๏ถT ( x0 , t ) / ๏ถx ๏ฝ 0 .
2-38C The boundary condition at a perfectly insulated surface (at x = 0, for example) can be expressed as
๏ญk
๏ถT (0, t )
๏ฝ0
๏ถx
or
๏ถT (0, t )
๏ฝ 0 which indicates zero heat flux.
๏ถx
2-39C Yes, the temperature profile in a medium must be perpendicular to an insulated surface since the slope ๏ถT / ๏ถx ๏ฝ 0 at
that surface.
2-40C We try to avoid the radiation boundary condition in heat transfer analysis because it is a non-linear expression that
causes mathematical difficulties while solving the problem; often making it impossible to obtain analytical solutions.

Solution of Steady One-Dimensional Heat Conduction Problems
2-53C Yes, the temperature in a plane wall with constant thermal conductivity and no heat generation will vary linearly during
steady one-dimensional heat conduction even when the wall loses heat by radiation from its surfaces. This is because the
steady heat conduction equation in a plane wall is d 2T / dx 2 = 0 whose solution is T ( x) ๏ฝ C1 x ๏ซ C 2 regardless of the
boundary conditions. The solution function represents a straight line whose slope is C1.
2-54C Yes, this claim is reasonable since in the absence of any heat generation the rate of heat transfer through a plain wall in
steady operation must be constant. But the value of this constant must be zero since one side of the wall is perfectly insulated.
Therefore, there can be no temperature difference between different parts of the wall; that is, the temperature in a plane wall
must be uniform in steady operation.
2-55C Yes, this claim is reasonable since no heat is entering the cylinder and thus there can be no heat transfer from the
cylinder in steady operation. This condition will be satisfied only when there are no temperature differences within the
cylinder and the outer surface temperature of the cylinder is the equal to the temperature of the surrounding medium.
2-56C Yes, in the case of constant thermal conductivity and no heat generation, the temperature in a solid cylindrical rod
whose ends are maintained at constant but different temperatures while the side surface is perfectly insulated will vary linearly
during steady one-dimensional heat conduction. This is because the steady heat conduction equation in this case is
d 2T / dx 2 = 0 whose solution is T ( x) ๏ฝ C1 x ๏ซ C 2 which represents a straight line whose slope is C1.

flux to its inner surface. The outer surface is subjected to convection heat transfer. The variation of temperature in the
container wall and the inner and outer surface temperatures are to be determined for steady one-dimensional heat transfer.
Assumptions 1 Heat conduction is steady and one-dimensional. 2 Thermal conductivity is constant. 3 There is no heat
generation in the wall. 4 The inner surface at r = r1 is subjected to uniform heat flux while the outer surface at r = r2 is
subjected to convection.

surface. The mathematical formulation, the variation of temperature in the pipe, and the outer surface temperature, and the
maximum rate of hot water supply are to be determined for steady one-dimensional heat transfer.

Heat Generation in a Solid
2-78C Heat generation in a solid is simply conversion of some form of energy into sensible heat energy. Some examples of
heat generations are resistance heating in wires, exothermic chemical reactions in a solid, and nuclear reactions in nuclear fuel
rods.
2-79C No. Heat generation in a solid is simply the conversion of some form of energy into sensible heat energy. For example
resistance heating in wires is conversion of electrical energy to heat.
2-80C The cylinder will have a higher center temperature since the cylinder has less surface area to lose heat from per unit
volume than the sphere.
2-81C The rate of heat generation inside an iron becomes equal to the rate of heat loss from the iron when steady operating
conditions are reached and the temperature of the iron stabilizes.
2-82C No, it is not possible since the highest temperature in the plate will occur at its center, and heat cannot flow โuphill.โ
2-83 Heat is generated uniformly in a large brass plate. One side of the plate is insulated while the other side is subjected to
convection. The location and values of the highest and the lowest temperatures in the plate are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Heat transfer is steady since there is no indication of any change with time. 2 Heat transfer is one-dimensional
since the plate is large relative to its thickness, and there is thermal symmetry about the center plane 3 Thermal conductivity is
constant. 4 Heat generation is uniform.
Properties The thermal conductivity is given to be k =111 W/m๏ยฐC.
Analysis This insulated plate whose thickness is L is equivalent to one-half of
an uninsulated plate whose thickness is 2L since the midplane of the
uninsulated plate can be treated as insulated surface. The highest temperature
will occur at the insulated surface while the lowest temperature will occur at
the surface which is exposed to the environment. Note that L in the following
relations is the full thickness of the given plate since the insulated side
represents the center surface of a plate whose thickness is doubled. The

2-88 Heat is generated in a large plane wall whose one side is insulated while the other side is maintained at a specified
temperature. The mathematical formulation, the variation of temperature in the wall, and the temperature of the insulated
surface are to be determined for steady one-dimensional heat transfer.
Assumptions 1 Heat transfer is steady since there is no indication of any change with time. 2 Heat transfer is one-dimensional
since the wall is large relative to its thickness, and there is thermal symmetry about the center plane. 3 Thermal conductivity is
constant. 4 Heat generation varies with location in the x direction.

A cylindrical fuel rod is cooled by water flowing through its encased concentric tube while generating a uniform
heat. The variation of temperature in the fuel rod and the center and surface temperatures are to be determined for steady onedimensional heat transfer.
Assumptions 1 Heat transfer is steady and one-dimensional with thermal symmetry about the center line. 2 Thermal
conductivity is constant. 3 The rod surface at r = ro is subjected convection. 4 Heat generation in the rod is uniform.
Properties The thermal conductivity is given to be 30 W/m๏K.

Fuel rod surface not cooled adequately.
Discussion The temperature of the fuel rod surface is 75ยฐC higher than the temperature necessary to prevent the cooling water
from reaching the CHF. To keep the temperature of the fuel rod surface below 200ยฐC, the convection heat transfer coefficient
of the cooling water should be kept above 4000 W/m2โK. This can be done either by increasing the mass flow rate of the
cooling water or by decreasing the inlet temperature of the cooling water. The topic of critical heat flux is covered in Chapter
10 (Boiling and Condensation).

Special Topic: Review of Differential equations
2-121C We utilize appropriate simplifying assumptions when deriving differential equations to obtain an equation that we can
deal with and solve.
2-122C A variable is a quantity which may assume various values during a study. A variable whose value can be changed
arbitrarily is called an independent variable (or argument). A variable whose value depends on the value of other variables
and thus cannot be varied independently is called a dependent variable (or a function).
2-123C A differential equation may involve more than one dependent or independent variable. For example, the equation
๏ถ 2T ( x, t ) e๏ฆgen 1 ๏ถT ( x, t )
has one dependent (T) and 2 independent variables (x and t). the equation

has 2 dependent (T and W) and 2 independent variables (x and t).

2-124C Geometrically, the derivative of a function y(x) at a point represents the slope of the tangent line to the graph of the
function at that point. The derivative of a function that depends on two or more independent variables with respect to one
variable while holding the other variables constant is called the partial derivative. Ordinary and partial derivatives are
equivalent for functions that depend on a single independent variable.
2-125C The order of a derivative represents the number of times a function is differentiated, whereas the degree of a
derivative represents how many times a derivative is multiplied by itself. For example, y ๏ข๏ข๏ข is the third order derivative of y,
whereas ( y ๏ข) 3 is the third degree of the first derivative of y.
2-126C For a function f ( x, y) , the partial derivative ๏ถf / ๏ถx will be equal to the ordinary derivative df / dx when f does not
depend on y or this dependence is negligible.
2-127C For a function f (x) , the derivative df / dx does not have to be a function of x. The derivative will be a constant
when the f is a linear function of x.
2-128C Integration is the inverse of derivation. Derivation increases the order of a derivative by one, integration reduces it by
one.

2-129C A differential equation involves derivatives, an algebraic equation does not.
2-130C A differential equation that involves only ordinary derivatives is called an ordinary differential equation, and a
differential equation that involves partial derivatives is called a partial differential equation.
2-131C The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest order derivative in the equation.
2-132C A differential equation is said to be linear if the dependent variable and all of its derivatives are of the first degree,
and their coefficients depend on the independent variable only. In other words, a differential equation is linear if it can be
written in a form which does not involve (1) any powers of the dependent variable or its derivatives such as y 3 or ( y ๏ข) 2 , (2)
any products of the dependent variable or its derivatives such as yy ๏ข or y ๏ขy ๏ข๏ข๏ข , and (3) any other nonlinear functions of the
dependent variable such as sin y or e y . Otherwise, it is nonlinear.
2-133C A linear homogeneous differential equation of order n is expressed in the most general form as
y (n) ๏ซ f1 ( x) y (n๏ญ1) ๏ซ ๏ ๏ซ f n๏ญ1 ( x) y ๏ข ๏ซ f n ( x) y ๏ฝ 0
Each term in a linear homogeneous equation contains the dependent variable or one of its derivatives after the equation is
cleared of any common factors. The equation y ๏ข๏ข ๏ญ 4 x 2 y ๏ฝ 0 is linear and homogeneous since each term is linear in y, and
contains the dependent variable or one of its derivatives.
2-134C A differential equation is said to have constant coefficients if the coefficients of all the terms which involve the
dependent variable or its derivatives are constants. If, after cleared of any common factors, any of the terms with the
dependent variable or its derivatives involve the independent variable as a coefficient, that equation is said to have variable
coefficients The equation y ๏ข๏ข ๏ญ 4 x 2 y ๏ฝ 0 has variable coefficients whereas the equation y ๏ข๏ข ๏ญ 4 y ๏ฝ 0 has constant coefficients.
2-135C A linear differential equation that involves a single term with the derivatives can be solved by direct integration.
2-136C The general solution of a 3rd order linear and homogeneous differential equation will involve 3 arbitrary constants.

2-139E A large plane wall is subjected to a specified temperature on the left (inner) surface and solar radiation and heat loss
by radiation to space on the right (outer) surface. The temperature of the right surface of the wall and the rate of heat transfer
are to be determined when steady operating conditions are reached.
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions are reached. 2 Heat transfer is onedimensional since the wall is large relative to its thickness, and the thermal conditions on
both sides of the wall are uniform. 3 Thermal properties are constant. 4 There is no heat

Analysis In steady operation, heat conduction through the wall must be equal
to net heat transfer from the outer surface. Therefore, taking the outer surface
