Learn how use MATLAB apps to simulate heat transfer in surfaces and under the initial temperature conditions. Use the simulation to deduce the following concepts:

• If the surface is filled with water, how long will it take for the temperature to go from 10 ° C to 40 ° C? What if the surface was filled with copper?
• How will the temperature change over time?
• What is the effect of boundary conditions on the temperature profile?
• How do we know if we have reached steady state?
