Estimate the heat transfer rate per unit length


Solve the below problem:

Q: A long trapezoidal bar is subjected to uniform temperatures on two surfaces, while the remaining surfaces are well insulated. If the thermal conductivity of the material is 20 W/m · K, estimate the heat transfer rate per unit length of the bar using a finite-difference method. Use the Gauss-Seidel method of solution with a space increment of 10 mm.
