Heat transfer: In a steady state one dimensional conduction with no heat generat

Heat transfer: In a steady state one dimensional conduction with no heat generation, the differential equation is d / dx (k dT / dx) = 0. Prove that T(x) = ax b, where k, a and b are constants. (b) At x = 0, T = c and at x = L, T = d. Prove that T(x) = (d - c) x / L c for boundary conditions.

HEAT TRANSFER - ANSWER 5.2 : When d / dx (k dT / dx) = 0, d (dT) / [ (dx) (dx) ] = 0. Integrate both sides gives dT / dx = a. Second integration gives T(x) = ax + b for both sides (proven). (b) T(0) = a(0) + b = b = c. T(L) = d = aL + c then a = (d - c) / L. Substitute in T(x) = ax + b gives T(x) = (d - c) x / L + c (proven).

DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS - EXAMPLE 20.1 : By using Excel program either on laptop or desktop PC, solve the differential equation dy / dx = -2y + x + 4 with h = 0.005, initial values : x = 0, y = 1. The 4th order Runge-Kutta method provides : y(N + 1) = y(N) + (1/6) (k1 + 2k2 +2k3 + k4), k1 = h [ -2y(N) + x(N) + 4 ], k2 = h { -2 [ y(N) + k1 / 2 ] + x(N) + h / 2 + 4 }, k3 = h { -2 [ y(N) + k2 / 2 ] + x(N) + h / 2 + 4 }, k4 = h { -2 [ y(N) + k3 ] + x(N) + h + 4 }. What is the value of y at x = 0.5?
