Discussion Forum : Heat Transfer - Section 8 (Q.No. 43)
43.
A long iron rod initially at a temperature of 20°C has one end dipped in boiling water (100°C) at time, t = 0. The curved surface of the rod is insulated so that heat conduction is one dimensional in the axial direction. The temperature at a distance 100 mm from the dipped end becomes 40°C at time, t = 200 s. The same temperature is achieved at a distance of 200 mm from the dipped end at time
t = 283 s
t = 356 s
t = 400 s
t = 800 s

Can anyone please explain it clearly?

Equate fouriers no :

(α*t )/ L^2 = (α *t2) /Lc^2.
t /(200)^2 = 200/(100)^2.
t = 800 s.
