Chapter 4, Problem 4.59P
Conduction within relatively complex geometries can sometimes be evaluated using the finite-difference methods of this text that are applied to subdomains and patched together. Consider the two-dimensional domain formed by rectangular and cylindrical subdomains patched at the common, dashed control surface. Note that, along the dashed control surface, temperatures in the two subdomains are identical and local conduction heat fluxes to the cylindrical subdomain are identical to local conduction heat fluxes from the rectangular subdomain.

Heat is generated inside the cylinder at a rate S (energy per unit volume per unit time).
(a) Neglecting conduction along the axis of the cylinder, find the steady-state temperature
distribution in the cylinder, given that the surface temperature is Ts.

length 5 cm. If the ambient air temperature is 10°C and the internal rate of heat
generation in the animal is 10-³ W/cm³, find the skin temperature (Ts) for the mouse. The
external heat-transfer coefficient is h = 0.2 W/m².K. (You can neglect conduction along
the axis of the mouse, as in part a.)
