How to Code Math Equation in Matlab.

Hi Everyone! I need help! I'm just new to Matlab I need to code this. Please see attached file. It really means a lot to me if anyone will tell me how to do it or is there a function or code that already do that. Note I need to solve for the value of k which is Thermal conductivity.

Hi @bob

Do you wish to learn only the specific code for solving the Heat Equation?

Or, do you want to learn MATLAB from scratch?

By the way, from the image, solving for k is rather super easy if you have the values for , ρ, c, and .

The idea is to rearrange

to become

and the make the substitutions of the values to calculate k.

Hi Sam yes only the code to solve for K, yes I have density and specific heat. The temperature will come from 3 sensors connected to a material using arduino.

Thanks for the update, @bob. Since you have the temperature data, the value of K can be computed easily. If the problem has been solved, consider accepting the Answer to close this issue.
