Consider transient heat conduction in a plane wall with variable heat generation and constant thermal conductivity .The nodal net work of the medium consists of nodes 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 with a uniform nodal spacing of Δx. The wall is initially at a specified temperature. Using the energy balance approach, obtain the explicit finite difference formulation of the boundary nodes for the case of uniform heat flux q0 the left boundary (node 0) and convection at the right boundary (node 4) with a convection coefficient of h and an ambient temperature of T∞ Do not simplify.
