Summary:
The one-dimensional steady-state convection-diffusion problem for the unknown temperature $y(x)$ of a medium entering the interval $(a,b)$ with the temperature $y_{\min }$ and flowing with a positive velocity $v(x)$ is studied. The medium is being heated with an intensity corresponding to $y_{\max }-y(x)$ for a constant $y_{\max }>y_{\min }$. We are looking for a velocity $v(x)$ with a given average such that the outflow temperature $y(b)$ is maximal and discuss the influence of the boundary condition at the point $b$ on the “maximizing” function $v(x)$.
