Radiation is used to heat a hollow sphere of inner radius i outer radius r and conductivity k. Due to the thermal absorption characteristics of the material the radiation results in a variable energy generation rate given by where is constant and r is the radial coordinate.
The inside surface is insulated and the outside surface is maintained at temperature Determine the steady state temperature distribution for one-dimensional conduction.
