QUESTION:
Derive the heat equation for a rod assuming constant thermal properties and no sources. (a) Consider the total thermal energy between x and x + x. (b) Consider the total thermal energy between x = a and x = b.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 9
Since we are told that there are constant thermal properties, we know the equation for the heat energy density.
