Heat equation 1-D

I want to model 1-D heat transfer equation with "k=0.001" in Matlab, at left side there is a Neuman boundary condition (dT/dx=0) and at the right side, there is a Dirichlet boundary condition (T=0) and my initial condition is T(0,x)=-20 degree centigrade. As I am a beginner in Matlab anybody can help in this regard. I will be very thankful to you?

How are you trying to model it? Do you want the system response? are you using Simulink?

if its Fourier’s law of heat transfer in 2D:
rate of heat transfer/ area = - k ( du / dx)
you just take the Fourier transform the equation and use simulink

Use MATLAB's "pdepe".
