Convergence problem with Find

Hello folks,

I have here a worksheet (MC15 on a 64 bit Win 7 machine) in which I tried to achieve by a solve block what I have done with an iteration. It is a plain heat transfer problem for which I try to compute the gas temperature in a confined volume.

Problem is that the Find function works like a charm but delivers a wrong answer; the solver finds a linear temperature increase wheas my iteration shows a saturation effect. I suspect that I have stated the conditions wrong.

Does anybody have the time at hands to check what's wrong?

Thank's

Raiko

Sorry, but it's in German.

Why not just use Odesolve?

No problem! Perhaps I should also point out that there is an analytical solution to the ode:
