An aluminum transmission line with a diameter of 20 mm has an electrical resistance of R'elec= 2.636 × 10-4 Ω/m and carries a current of 700 A. The line is subjected to frequent and severe cross winds, increasing the probability of contact between adjacent lines, thereby causing sparks and creating a potential fire hazard for nearby vegetation. The remedy is to insulate the line, but with the adverse effect of increasing the conductor operating temperature. (a) Calculate the conductor temperature...

A 4-mm thick, 20cm diameter cast iron frying pan (K = 55 W/mK) is heated on a traditional stovetop range. Under certain stovetop settings, the temperature on the bottom surface of the pan (in contact with the heating element) is measured to be 160°C and that on the inside of the pan (cooking surface) is 150°C. Using the heat diffusion equation, find an expression (specific solution) for the temperature distribution across the thickness of the pan.
