Maximum Temperature in Solid Sphere Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Temperature = Surface Temperature of Wall+(Internal Heat Generation*Radius of Sphere^2)/(6*Thermal Conductivity)
T_max = T_w+(q_G*R_s^2)/(6*k)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Maximum Temperature is defined as the highest possible or permissible value of temperature.
Surface Temperature of Wall - (Measured in Kelvin) - Surface Temperature of wall is the temperature at or near a surface. Specifically, it may refer to as Surface air temperature, the temperature of the air near the surface of the earth.
Internal Heat Generation - (Measured in Watt Per Cubic Meter) - Internal Heat Generation is defined as the conversion of electrical, chemical, or nuclear energy into heat (or thermal) energy which leads to a rise in temperature throughout the medium.
Radius of Sphere - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Sphere is a line segment extending from the center of a sphere to the circumference or bounding surface.
Thermal Conductivity - (Measured in Watt per Meter per K) - Thermal Conductivity is rate of heat passes through specified material, expressed as amount of heat flows per unit time through a unit area with a temperature gradient of one degree per unit distance.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Surface Temperature of Wall: 273 Kelvin --> 273 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Internal Heat Generation: 100 Watt Per Cubic Meter --> 100 Watt Per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Radius of Sphere: 11.775042 Meter --> 11.775042 Meter No Conversion Required
Thermal Conductivity: 10.18 Watt per Meter per K --> 10.18 Watt per Meter per K No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_max = T_w+(q_G*R_s^2)/(6*k) --> 273+(100*11.775042^2)/(6*10.18)

Evaluating ... ...

T_max = 500.000023087367

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

500.000023087367 Kelvin --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

500.000023087367 ≈ 500 Kelvin <-- Maximum Temperature
