Question

A cylinder of radius r and thermal conductivity K subscript 1 end subscript is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of linear radius r and outer radius2 r, whose thermal conductivity is K subscript 2 end subscript. There is no loss of heat across cylindrical surfaces, when the ends of the combined system are maintained at temperatures T subscript 1 end subscript a n d T subscript 2 end subscript. The effective thermal conductivity of the system, in the steady state is

  1. fraction numerator K subscript 1 end subscript K subscript 2 end subscript over denominator K subscript 1 end subscript plus K subscript 2 end subscript end fraction    
  2. K subscript 1 end subscript plus K subscript 2 end subscript    
  3. fraction numerator K subscript 1 end subscript plus 3 K subscript 2 end subscript over denominator 4 end fraction    
  4. fraction numerator 3 K subscript 1 end subscript plus K subscript 2 end subscript over denominator 4 end fraction    

The correct answer is: fraction numerator K subscript 1 end subscript plus 3 K subscript 2 end subscript over denominator 4 end fraction


    open parentheses fraction numerator increment Q over denominator increment t end fraction close parentheses subscript i n n e r end subscript plus open parentheses fraction numerator increment Q over denominator increment t end fraction close parentheses subscript o u t e r end subscript equals open parentheses fraction numerator increment Q over denominator increment t end fraction close parentheses subscript t o t a l end subscript
    fraction numerator K subscript 1 end subscript pi r to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses T subscript 2 end subscript minus T subscript 1 end subscript close parentheses over denominator l end fraction plus blank fraction numerator K subscript 2 end subscript pi open square brackets open parentheses 2 r close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent minus r to the power of 2 end exponent close square brackets open parentheses T subscript 2 end subscript minus T subscript 1 end subscript close parentheses over denominator l end fraction
    equals fraction numerator K pi open parentheses 2 r close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses T subscript 2 end subscript minus T subscript 1 end subscript close parentheses over denominator l end fraction
    or open parentheses K subscript 1 end subscript plus 3 K subscript 2 end subscript close parentheses fraction numerator pi r to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses T subscript 2 end subscript minus T subscript 1 end subscript close parentheses over denominator l end fraction blank equals blank fraction numerator K pi blank 4 blank r to the power of 2 end exponent left parenthesis T subscript 2 end subscript minus T subscript 1 end subscript right parenthesis over denominator l end fraction
    therefore blank K equals fraction numerator K subscript 1 end subscript plus 3 K subscript 2 end subscript over denominator 4 end fraction
