A small dam, which may be idealized by a large slab 1.2 m thick, is to be completely poured in a short period of time. The hydration of the concrete results in the equivalent of a distributed source of constant strength of 100 W/m3 . If both dam surfaces are at 16°C, determine the maximum temperature to which the concrete will be subjected, assuming steady-state conditions. The thermal conductivity of the wet concrete may be taken as 0.84 W/(m K).

GIVEN

FIND
The maximum temperature (Tmax)
ASSUMPTIONS
Steady state conditions prevail
