One dimensional unsteady state heat transfer equation for a sphere with heat generation at the rate $$'{q_g}',$$ can be written as
A
$${1 \over {r^2}}\,{\partial \over {\partial r}}\left( {r{{\partial T} \over {\partial r}}} \right) + {q \over k} = {1 \over \alpha }\,{{\partial T} \over {\partial t}}$$
B
$${1 \over {r^2}}\,{\partial \over {\partial r}}\left( {{r^2}{{\partial T} \over {\partial r}}} \right) + {q \over k} = {1 \over \alpha }\,{{\partial T} \over {\partial t}}$$
C
$${{{\partial ^2}T} \over {\partial {r^2}}} + {q \over k} = {1 \over \alpha }\,{{\partial T} \over {\partial t}}$$
D
$${{{\partial ^2}} \over {\partial {r^2}}}\left( {rT} \right) + {q \over k} = {1 \over \alpha }\,{{\partial T} \over {\partial t}}$$
