A very long stick, 5 mm in diameter, has one of its ends. maintained at 70 °C. The surface of the stick is exposed to ambient air at 20 °C, with a convection heat transfer coefficient of 88 W/(m2K). a)Determine the equation of temperature distribution across rods constructed of AISI 316 stainless steel. What are the calorie losses in the rods? B) Estimate how long the rods should be for the infinite length hypothesis to provide an accurate estimate of heat loss.
