A wall 0.12 m thick having a thermal diffusivity of 1.5 × 10-6 m2/s is initially at a uniform temperature of 97°C. Suddenly one face is lowered to a temperature of 20°C, while the other face is perfectly insulated. Use the explicit finite-difference technique with space and time increments of 30 mm and 300 s to determine the temperature distribution at at 45 minutes.

at  t = 45 s :  

To = 61.7⁰c,  T1 = 55.6⁰c, T2 = 49.5⁰c, T3 = 34.8⁰C

Explanation:

Wall thickness = 0.12 m

thermal diffusivity = 1.5 * 10^-6 m^2/s

Δt ( time increment ) = 300 s

Δ x   = 0.03 m ( dividing wall thickness into 4 parts assuming the system to be one dimensional )

using the explicit finite-difference technique
