A steady flow of 0.1 kg/s carbon dioxide at 1000 K in one line is mixed with 0.2 kg/s nitrogen at 400 K from another line, both at 100 kPa. The mixing chamber is insulated and has constant pressure of 100 kPa. Use constant specific heat to find the mixing chamber’s exit temperature.

Starting wih an energy balance on a rectangular volume element, derive the one- dimensional transient heat conduction equation for a plane wall with constant thermal conductivity and no heat generation.
