Solution

The correct option is A 1:8
The heat flow is given by:
˙Q=KAdTdx=KAΔTl
Given that ratio of diameters is 1:2, in other words the ratio of their areas (AD2)
is 1:4, and ratio of their lengths is 2:1.
The dimensions of the rod can be assumed to be:
  • Rod 1: length 2l, area A
  • Rod 2: length l, area 4A
˙Q1=KAΔT2l
˙Q2=4KAΔTl
˙Q1˙Q2=18
Given that both have the same temperature difference across each other. For same time interval (T) the ratio of heat transfer will be
Q1Q2= ˙Q1T˙Q2T=18
