1. The temperature of the soil is constant at To to infinite depth.

A wave suddenly
reduces the air temperature from To to T∞. The convective coefficient above the
soil is h. Assume the properties of the soil are constant and conduction only in x-
direction only.
Write down the partial differential equation of the temperature of the soil, initial
and boundary conditions.

2. The temperature of the rectangular solid (with length from –a to a in x-direction,

width from –b to b in y-direction, height from -c to c in z-direction) is constant at To.
The solid is suddenly immersed into a fluid. The temperature of the fluid is constant
at T∞, and the convective coefficient of the fluid is h. Assume the properties of the solid
are constant.
Write down the partial differential equation of the temperature of the solid, initial
and boundary conditions.

3. The temperature of the sphere (with radius R) is constant at To. The sphere is
suddenly immersed into a fluid. The temperature of the fluid is constant at T∞,
and the convective coefficient of the fluid is h. The density, heat capacity and
conductivity of the sphere areCp, and k, respectively. Assume the properties of
the sphere are constant.
What is the temperature change with time of the sphere if the internal resistance is
negligible? What condition is satisfied then we can assume the internal resistance
is neglected ?
4. The temperature of the cylinder (with radius R, length –H<=Z<=H) is constant at
To. The cylinder is suddenly immersed into a fluid. The temperature of the fluid is
constant at T∞, and the convective coefficient of the fluid is h. The density, heat
capacity and conductivity of the cylinder areCp, and k, respectively. Assume the
properties of the cylinder are constant.
Derive the partial differential equation of the temperature of the solid (from shell
balance), and write down initial and boundary conditions.

5. Newtonian fluid with constant , , k, Cp is steady state plug flow Vz(=constant)

flux is constant). The inner temperature of fluid is To. Assume T(r,z),
