Maximum temperature at center of solid cylinder - Heat Transfer
Q. What is the formula for maximum temperature (Tmax) at the center of a long and solid cylindrical electric wire of radius r?
Where,
q̇ is rate of heat generation into the electric wire
k is thermal conductivity of the electric wire
and To is the surface temperature of the wire
- Published on 12 Aug 15a. (Tmax)=(To) +(q̇r2/2k)
b. (Tmax) =(To) +(q̇r2/4k)
c. (Tmax) =(q̇r2/2k)
d. Tmax) =(To) +(4q̇r2/k)
ANSWER: (Tmax) =(To) +(q̇r2/4k)
