    • MATLAB used to carry out iteration using derived equations and plot graphs
    • Evaluating results, drastic dip was observed immediately after the trailing edge due to a combined effect of the cooling effect from the air velocity and insulation of the surface. The temperature rose again due to the heat flux from the second strip and started to decrease exponentially from the trailing edge of the second strip
