Abstract
This chapter builds on the few-node numerical approach, detailing the side wall of the mug of coffee problem. Conceptually, multi-node problems involve a simple extension of the principles developed for the few-node model. However, in programming a multi-node simulation, some or all of the recursion formulas can be written in terms of an input numerical parameter, say “n” and the governing equations are derived in terms of “n”. These problems cannot be readily handled that way with a spreadsheet solution, where a commitment to a specific number of nodes must be made at the outset (set up the number of columns). Nevertheless, a multi-node model with predetermined number of nodes can be developed in a spreadsheet, as presented in this chapter to observe more detailed thermal response during the mug heating phase.
