Explanation of Solution
Draw the axisymmetric shape as shown below:
Write the expression as per Fourier law.
Here,
Sincethe heat transfer through the body remains constant and thermal conductivity of the body remains constant the Fourier law can be explained as:
The above expression indicated that temperature and thickness is inversely proportional to one another.
On T-x curve the independent variable is x and the dependent variable is T .
Draw the T-x curve for axisymmetric shape as shown below:
