Mechanical Engineering > GATE 2013 SET-2 > Heat Transfer
Consider one-dimensional steady state heat conduction, without heat generation, in a plane wall; with boundary conditions as shown in the figure. The conductivity of the wall is given by k = k0 + bT; where k0 and b are positive constants, and T is temperature.
As x increases, the temperature gradient (dT/dx) will
A
remain constant
B
be zero
C
increase
D
decrease

Correct : d
