    I Dissolution of a metal sphere

    Hello Simon, Thank you very much for your response. Maybe I am not fully understanding your answer. The A, I am trying to find is not the surface area of the sphere but rather a constant found in the solution to dm/dt = -c*s(m) = -c*4πi*(3m/(4πi*ρ)^(2/3) (equation 1) where the solution to...

    Transient heat transfer problem in cylinderical coordinates

    Ok thanks for the help. I am having a problem find the currect solutions to this problem, from a previous post of PF https://www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-204570.html i found that u(r,z) = u_0 \cdot \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{sinh(\lambda_n z) \cdot J_0(\lambda_n r)}{\lambda_n...

    Transient heat transfer problem in cylinderical coordinates

    ok thank you very much for the reply. I looked up the conduction equation for spherical eq and got. Can u understand this, i don't really known how to work with latex, but i can reenter it needed. 1/r(d/dr)(kr(dT/dr)) + 1/r^2(d/dO)(k(dT/dO) + d/dz(kdT/dz) + q = pc(dT/dt) once again the...
