Let us subject this solution to boundary conditions [r = r1, t = t1] and [r = r2, t = t2]

Hence the amount of heat flowing through the wall of the tube per hour is directly
proportional to λ, l (length of the tube) and the ∆t (temperature difference = t 1-t2) and
inversely proportional to the natural logarithm of the ratio of outer radius to inner radius and
the radii ratio can be replaced by that of diameters. This equation is the calculation formula
for conduction through a homogeneous cylindrical wall. It remains true for the case if t 1<t2. In
that case, the flow of heat is directed from the outer surface to the inner.
By inserting the value of the constant C

The amount of heat passing through the wall of the tube per hour is applicable either to 1 m of
length or a unit of inner or outer surface area.
