ASSIGNMENT #3 (Submission due date: 3rd June 2021)

1. Consider a long rod of rectangular cross-section (width = 0.5m and height = 0.25m). Thermal
-1 -1 -3 -
conductivity, density and specific heat of the rod material are 10Wm K , 1kgm , and 200 Jkg
1 -1
K respectively.

(a) Using implicit form of FDM, solve as time marching problem to find the steady state spatial
temperature distribution in the rod.
