, Chapter 1. Heat Equation
Section 1.2
1.2.9 (d) Circular cross section means that P = 2πr, A = πr2 , and thus P/A = 2/r, where r is the radius.
Also γ = 0.
1.2.9 (e) u(x, t) = u(t) implies that

The solution of this first-order linear differential equation with constant coefficients, which satisfies the
initial condition u(0) = u0 , is · ¸

Section 1.3
1.3.2 ∂u/∂x is continuous if K0 (x0 −) = K0 (x0 +), that is, if the conductivity is continuous.

Section 1.4
1.4.1 (a) Equilibrium satisfies (1.4.14), d2 u/dx2 = 0, whose general solution is (1.4.17), u = c1 + c2 x. The
IA
boundary condition u(0) = 0 implies c1 = 0 and u(L) = T implies c2 = T /L so that u = T x/L.
1.4.1 (d) Equilibrium satisfies (1.4.14), d2 u/dx2 = 0, whose general solution (1.4.17), u = c1 + c2 x. From
the boundary conditions, u(0) = T yields T = c1 and du/dx(L) = α yields α = c2 . Thus u = T + αx.
1.4.1 (f) In equilibrium, (1.2.9) becomes d2 u/dx2 = −Q/K0 = −x2 , whose general solution (by integrating
_A
twice) is u = −x4 /12 + c1 + c2 x. The boundary condition u(0) = T yields c1 = T , while du/dx(L) = 0
yields c2 = L3 /3. Thus u = −x4 /12 + L3 x/3 + T .
1.4.1 (h) Equilibrium satisfies d2 u/dx2 = 0. One integration yields du/dx = c2 , the second integration
yields the general solution u = c1 + c2 x.
x=0: c2 − (c1 − T ) = 0

x=L: c2 = α and thus c1 = T + α.
Therefore, u = (T + α) + αx = T + α(x + 1).
1.4.7 (a) For equilibrium:

From the boundary conditions du du
dx (0) = 1 and dx (L) = β, c1 = 1 and −L + c1 = β which is consistent

only if β + L = 1. If β = 1 − L, there is an equilibrium solution (u = − x2 + x + c2 ). If β 6= 1 − L,
there isn’t an equilibrium solution. The difficulty is caused by the heat flow being specified at both
ends and a source specified inside. An equilibrium will exist only if these three are in balance. This

balance can be mathematically verified from conservation of energy:

d L du du
cρu dx = − (0) + (L) + Q0 dx = −1 + β + L.

If β + L = 1, then the total thermal energy is constant and the initial energy = the final energy:

If β + L 6= 1, then the total thermal energy is always changing in time and an equilibrium is never
reached.

1.5.9 (a) In equilibrium, (1.5.14) using (1.5.19) becomes dr r dr = 0. Integrating once yields rdu/dr = c1
and integrating a second time (after dividing by r) yields u = c1 ln r + c2 . An alternate general solution
is u = c1 ln(r/r1 ) + c3 . The boundary condition u(r1 ) = T1 yields c3 = T1 , while u(r2 ) = T2 yields
c1 = (T2 − T1 )/ ln(r2 /r1 ). Thus, u = ln(r21/r1 ) [(T2 − T1 ) ln r/r1 + T1 ln(r2 /r1 )].

1.5.11 For equilibrium, the radial flow at r = a, 2πaβ, must equal the radial flow at r = b, 2πb. Thus β = b/a.

1.5.13 From exercise 1.5.12, in equilibrium dr r dr = 0. Integrating once yields r2 du/dr = c1 and integrat-

ing a second time (after dividing by r ) yields u = −c1 /r + c2 . The boundary conditions ¡ u(4) ¢ = 80
and u(1) = 0 yields 80 = −c1 /4 + c2 and 0 = −c1 + c2 . Thus c1 = c2 = 320/3 or u = 320 3 1 − 1r .
