Homework Statement
Consider a rectangular metal plate 20 cm wide along y-axis and infinitely long in x
as shown in the Figure below. The two long sides and the far end are held at 0ºC and
the short side along y-axis has the temperature distribution T (y) = y, that is at a point
y in cm between 0 and 20 cm the temperature is y degrees. Find the steady state
temperature distribution inside the plate. Describe in detail all steps leading to the
solution.
Homework Equations
I think Fourier transforms are involved but I don't know how to use them on something like this.
