Basic Roles
• Symmetry lines of both gemetric
adiabats
and thermal Symmetry
• These lines are adiabats
• Adiabats and Isothermals are
normal in the mirior of the body
• Isothermals intersect adiabats at
right angles
adiabats intersec Isothermals at right Isothermals
angles
• Adiabats bisect isothermal corners

There are three approaches to solve this equation:
• Numerical Method: Finite difference or finite element schemes,
usually will be solved using computers.
• Graphical Method: Limited use. However, the conduction shape
factor concept derived under this concept can be useful for specific
configurations.
• Analytical Method: The mathematical equation can be solved
using techniques like the method of separation of variables. (review
