Question

A prismatic rod with a fixed length (L) and volume (V) has a given heat flux density (q) passing along its length with a linear temperature gradient over the length. What material property ratio will allow the heat stored in the rod to be maximized?

What material property ratio will allow the heat stored in the rod to be maximized?

Explanation / Answer

Specific heat of the rod material.

Since the temperature gradient is given, the more the specific heat, more will be the internal energy stored in rod.

I.E = m * c * dt

M is mass of rod

C is specific heat

dt is temperature difference
