h = 80 W/m2 · °C, and the right surface is subjected to heat flux at a uniform rate of q R = 5000 W/m2. The & nodal network of the problem consists of 15 equally spaced nodes with Δx = Δy = 1.2 cm. Using the explicit method, determine the temperature at the top corner of the body after 1, 3, 5, 10, and 60 min. 2.4 cm 2.4 cm 1.2 cm 6 cmFigure 2: Transient heat conduction problem description (adopted from Çengel5).After the introduction of the

velocities thatthen feeds into the kinetic energy term of energy balances, you end up with two pathwaysthrough volumetric flowrate using area to get to that point, one for liquids and one for gases.Potential energy, heat (Q) and shaft work (Ws) also appear leading up towards the top of thediagram where internal energy (ΔU) and enthalpy (ΔH) appear. One can then bridge over tospecific internal energies and enthalpies (U-hat and H-hat) to the left through temperature andpressure information. One can also calculate enthalpies and internal energies from integrals ofthe appropriate heat capacities in the upper right. Phase change information may also be neededthrough ΔHvap, ΔHfus and ΔUvap, ΔUfus. It should be noted that even after several years of
