Consider steady two-dimensional heat transfer in a long solid body whose
cross section is given in the figure. The temperature at the selected nodes
and the thermal conditions at the boundaries are shown.
The thermal conductivity of the body is k=45(W)/(m)\deg C, and heat is generated
in the body uniformly at a rate of g_(gen)^(?)=4^(*)10^(6)(W)/(m^(3)). Using nodal analysis with
\Delta x=\Delta y=5.0cm, determine
(a) The temperature at nodes 1, 2, and 3, and
(b) The rate of heat loss from the bottom surface through a 1-m-long section
of the body.
