Question

1.14 The thin rod shown in the sketch is electrically heated by a current $I$. The electrical resistance of the rod per foot of length is $R'$. The rod surface is cooled with a uniform and constant heat-transfer coefficient $h$ by an ambient at $t_\infty$. The ends of the rod are maintained at temperature $t_0$. 0 $t_\infty$ $t_0$ $t_0$ L $2L$ $x$ (a) Derive the differential equation for the temperature distribution along the rod from basic principles. (b) State the boundary conditions for the problem. (c) Derive an expression for the temperature as a function of position along the rod. (d) Determine the location and magnitude of the temperature extremes along the rod. (e) Determine the length of rod for which the maximum temperature difference between one position and another along the rod the greatest. How much is it?
