Pre-Workshop
Again we consider temperature distributions within the unit
square:
. The left edge ,
or a portion of it, is maintained at 100°C, while the right edge
),
or a portion of it, is maintained at 20°C.
In the interactive exercises
and
you are asked to map the steady-state temperature distribution
within the square and consider the heat flow at various
points.
Since the temperature
has a value at each point
of the square, we can represent the steady-state temperature
distribution by a scalar function
.
