Consider a large uranium plate of thickness 5 cm and thermal conductivity k=,34 W/m·K in which heat is generated uniformly at a constant rate of e= 6 X lO5 W/m3· One side of the plate is insulated while the other side is subjected to convection to an environment at 30°C with a heat transfer coefficient of h = 60W/m2-K. Considering six equally spaced nodes with a nodal spacing of 1 cm, (a) obtain the finite difference formulation of this problem and (b) determine the nodal temperatures under steady conditions by solving those equations
