Consider the steel and concrete boundary shown in the figure and write the node equation for node n. Identify the maximum time step allowed for the explicit method of solving for temperatures.

What will be an ideal response?


Referring to the figure, ?x = ?y = 0.1 m and for the nth node shown



For the explicit method, making substitutions and solving for the new node temperature,
