Heat transfer between two fluids through a sandwiched solid (coupled problem):
Two fluids flow opposite to each other on either side of a solid (T), while exchanging heat among themselves. In such a scenario, the conduction in the solid is governed by:
1)
with boundary condition as
The fluids are governed by the following equations:
2)
3)
The hot fluid initiates at and the cold fluid starts from .
The boundary conditions are and
Equation (1), (2) and (3) form a coupled system of ordinary differential equations.
It is pretty evident that using (2) and (3), Equation (1) can be re-written as:
4)
However, I have not been able to proceed further.
Some parameter values are
