Chapter 16 Problem 45P

Question

Figure 16–16 shows a composite slab of three different materials with equal thickness but different thermal conductivities. The opposite sides of the composite slab are held at the fixed temperatures \(T_{1} \text { and } T_{2}\). Given that \(k_{B}>k_{A}>k_{C}\), rank the materials in order of the temperature difference across them, starting with the smallest. Indicate ties where appropriate.

Solution

Step 1 of 2:-

Here we have to rank the materials(increasing order) in order of the temperature difference between them.
