𝑉=𝜋 [ (𝑟+∆𝑟 )2−𝑟2 ] 𝐿Too small

∴𝑉=𝜋 [2𝑟 ∆𝑟 ]𝐿 ∴𝐺𝑒𝑛=2𝜋 𝑟 ∆𝑟𝐿 ∙𝑆𝑒

Shell Heat Balance:

(2𝜋𝑟𝐿𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟 − (2𝜋𝑟𝐿𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟+∆𝑟+ (2𝜋 𝑟 ∆𝑟𝐿 )𝑆𝑒=0

Dividing by

(𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟− (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟+∆𝑟

∆𝑟 =−𝑆𝑒 𝑟

Q: Why did we divide by and not by ?

(2𝜋𝑟𝐿𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟 − (2𝜋𝑟𝐿𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟+∆𝑟=− (2𝜋𝑟 ∆𝑟𝐿)𝑆𝑒



We now have:(𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟− (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟+∆𝑟

∆ 𝑟 =−𝑆𝑒 𝑟

Taking the limit as :

Q: Is this correct?

𝑑𝑑𝑟 (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )=−𝑆𝑒 𝑟

NO!



We now have:(𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟− (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟+∆𝑟

∆ 𝑟 =−𝑆𝑒 𝑟

We must adhere to the definition of the derivative:

(𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟+∆ 𝑟− (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟∆𝑟 =+𝑆𝑒 𝑟

lim∆𝑟→0

(𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )|𝑟+∆ 𝑟− (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 ) |𝑟∆ 𝑟 = 𝑑

𝑑𝑟 (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )=𝑆𝑒𝑟



We now have:𝑑𝑑𝑟 (𝑟 𝑞𝑟 )=𝑆𝑒𝑟

Boundary conditions:

𝑎𝑡 𝑟=0 ,𝑞𝑟= 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒

𝑎𝑡 𝑟=𝑅 ,𝑇=𝑇 0

Note: The problem statement will tell you hints about what boundary conditions to use.

Integrating: 𝑞𝑟=𝑆𝑒𝑟2

+𝐶1

𝑟



We now have:

𝑎𝑡 𝑟=0 ,𝑞𝑟= 𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒Applying B.C. 1:

𝑞𝑟=𝑆𝑒𝑟2

+𝐶1

𝑟

Because q has to be finite at r = 0, all the terms with radius, r, below the denominator must vanish. Therefore:

𝐶1=0




We now have: 𝑞𝑟=𝑆𝑒𝑟2

Substituting Fourier’s Law:

−𝑘 𝑑𝑇𝑑𝑟 =

𝑆𝑒 𝑟2

𝑑𝑇𝑑𝑟 =

−𝑆𝑒𝑟2𝑘

𝑇=−𝑆𝑒𝑟 2

4𝑘 +𝐶2



We now have: 𝑇=−𝑆𝑒𝑟 2

4𝑘 +𝐶2

Applying B.C. 2: 𝑎𝑡 𝑟=𝑅 ,𝑇=𝑇 0

𝑇 0=−𝑆𝑒𝑅2

4 𝑘 +𝐶2

𝐶2=𝑇0+𝑆𝑒𝑅2

4 𝑘

𝑇=−𝑆𝑒𝑟 2

4𝑘 +𝑆𝑒𝑅2

This is it! But, we rewrite it into a nicer form…

Temperature Profile:

Important assumptions:

1. Temperature rise is not large so that

k and Se are constant & uniform.

2. The surface of the wire is

maintained at T0.

3. Heat flux is finite at the center.

How can we account for all these terms at once?

We need all these terms for viscous dissipation:

Combined Energy Flux Vector

Convective Energy FluxHeat Rate from Molecular Motion

Work Rate from Molecular Motion

Combined Energy Flux Vector:

𝒆=( 12 𝜌𝑣2+𝜌 �̂�)𝒗+ [𝝅 ∙𝒗 ]+𝒒

We introduce something new to replace q:




𝝅=𝑝𝜹+𝝉Recall the molecular stress tensor:When dotted with v: [𝝅 ∙𝒗 ]=𝑝 𝒗+[𝝉 ∙𝒗 ]

Substituting into e:

𝒆=( 12 𝜌𝑣2+𝜌 �̂�)𝒗+𝑝𝒗+[𝝉 ∙𝒗 ]+𝒒




𝒆=( 12 𝜌𝑣2+𝜌 �̂�)𝒗+𝑝𝒗+[𝝉 ∙𝒗 ]+𝒒

Simplifying the boxed expression:

𝜌 �̂� 𝒗+𝑝 𝒗=𝜌 (�̂�+ 𝑝𝜌 )𝒗=𝜌 (𝑈+𝑝 �̂� ) 𝒗=𝜌 �̂� 𝒗

Finally: 𝒆=( 12 𝜌𝑣2+𝜌 �̂� )𝒗+[𝝉 ∙𝒗 ]+𝒒
