A plane wall, 7.5 cm thick, generates heat internally at the rate of 105 W/m3 . One side of the wall is insulated, and the other side is exposed to an environment at 90°C. The convection heat transfer coefficient between the wall and the environment is 500 W/(m2 K). If the thermal conductivity of the wall is 12 W/(m K), calculate the maximum temperature in the wall.

GIVEN

FIND
- The maximum temperature in the wall (Tmax)
ASSUMPTIONS
- The heat loss through the insulation is negligible
- The system has reached steady state
- One dimensional conduction through the wall
