Question:

Consider a long bar of rectangular cross section (60 mm by 90 mm on a side) and of thermal conductivity 1 W/m · K. The top surface is exposed to a convection process with air at 100ºC and a convection heat transfer coefficient of 100 W/m2 · K, while the remaining surfaces are maintained at 50ºC. Using a grid spacing of 30 mm and the Gauss-Seidel iteration method, determine the temperatures at nodes 1, 2, and 3 shown in Fig. P5–64. Use an initial estimate of 0ºC for all the nodal temperatures and a 0.35ºC convergence criterion.
