A CLASS OF TWO-LEVEL EXPLICIT DIFFERENCE SCHEMES FOR SOLVING THREE DIMENSIONAL HEAT CONDUCTION EQUATION

A class of two-level explicit difference schemes are presented for solving three-dimensional heat conduction equation. When the order of truncation error is 0(Deltat + (Deltax)(2)), the stability condition is mesh ratio r = Deltat/(Deltax)(2) = Deltat/(Deltay)(2) = Deltat/(Deltaz)(2) less than or equal to 1/2, which is better than that of all the other explicit difference schemes. And when the order of truncation error is 0((Deltat)(2) + (Deltax)(4)), the stability condition is r less than or equal to 1/6, which contains the known results.

Finite Difference Approximation for Solving Transient Heat Conduction Equation of Copper

In this paper, a numerical technique is proposed to obtain the solution for transient heat conduction equation of Copper. The copper element is characterized by many characteristics;the most important of which is its high ability to conduct heat and electrical conductivity, in addition to being a flexible and malleable metal that is easy to form without being broken, making it one of the basic minerals that humans have benefited from for thousands of years, it is one of the first minerals. That has been discovered and extracted, and still plays a major role in the development of societies. The obtained solutions are compared with the available exact solutions and the obtained solutions using the finite difference method. The results indicate that the finite difference method is a highly effective method for obtaining approximate solutions for the thermal conductivity equation for copper. It is also clear from the numerical results from copper in the high conductivity of heat and electricity.

Variational Approach to Heat Conduction Modeling

It is known that Fourier’s heat equation, which is parabolic, implies an infinite velocity propagation, or, in other words, that the mechanism of heat conduction is established instantaneously under all conditions. This is unacceptable on physical grounds in spite of the fact that Fourier’s law agrees well with experiment. However, discrepancies are likely to occur when extremely short distances or extremely short time intervals are considered, as they must in some modern problems of aero-thermodynamics. Cattaneo and independently Vernotte proved that such process can be described by Heaviside’s telegraph equation. This paper shows that this fact can be derived using calculus of variations, by application of the Euler-Lagrange equation. So, we proved that the equation of heat conduction with finite velocity propagation of the thermal disturbance can be obtained as a solution to one variational problem.

Variational Approach to 2D and 3D Heat Conduction Modeling

The paper proposes an approximate solution to the classical (parabolic) multidimensional 2D and 3D heat conduction equation for a 5 × 5 cm aluminium plate and a 5 × 5 × 5 cm aluminum cube. An approximate solution of the generalized (hyperbolic) 2D and 3D equation for the considered plate and cube is also proposed. Approximate solutions were obtained by applying calculus of variations and Euler-Lagrange equations. In order to verify the correctness of the proposed approximate solutions, they were compared with the exact solutions of parabolic and hyperbolic equations. The paper also presents the research on the influence of time parameters τ as well as the relaxation times τ ∗ to the variation of the profile of the temperature field for the considered aluminum plate and cube.

Resolving double-sided inverse heat conduction problem using calibration integral equation method

In this paper, a novel calibration integral equation is derived for resolving double-sided, two-probe inverse heat conduction problem of surface heat flux estimation. In contrast to the conventional inverse heat conduction techniques, this calibration approach does not require explicit input of the probe locations, thermophysical properties of the host material and temperature sensor parameters related to thermal contact resistance, sensor capacitance and conductive lead losses. All those parameters and properties are inherently contained in the calibration framework in terms of Volterra integral equation of the first kind. The Laplace transform technique is applied and the frequency domain manipulations of the heat equation are performed for deriving the calibration integral equation. Due to the ill-posed nature, regularization is required for the inverse heat conduction problem, a future-time method or singular value decomposition (SVD) can be used for stabilizing the ill-posed Volterra integral equation of the first kind.

3D Radiative Transfer Equation Coupled with Heat Conduction Equation with Realistic Boundary Conditions Applied on Complex Geometries

This paper presents the solution of coupled radiative transfer equation with heat conduction equation in complex three-dimensional geometries. Due to very different time scales for both physics, the radiative problem is considered steady-state but solved at each time iteration of the transient conduction problem. The discrete ordinate method along with the decentered streamline-upwind Petrov-Galerkin method is developed. Since specular reflection is considered on borders, a very accurate algorithm has been developed for calculation of partition ratio coefficients of incident solid angles to the several reflected solid angles. The developed algorithms are tested on a paraboloid-shaped geometry used for example on concentrated solar power technologies.

An Efficient Approach for Solving One-Dimensional Fractional Heat Conduction Equation

Several researchers have dealt with the one-dimensional fractional heat conduction equation in the last decades,but as far as we know,no one has investigated such a problem from the perspective of developing suitable fractional-order methods.This has actually motivated us to address this problem by the way of establishing a proper fractional approach that involves employing a combination of a novel fractional difference formula to approximate the Caputo differentiator of orderαcoupled with the modified three-point fractional formula to approximate the Caputo differentiator of order 2α,where 0<α≤1.As a result,the fractional heat conduction equation is then reexpressed numerically using the aforementioned formulas,and by dividing the considered mesh into multiple nodes,a system is generated and algebraically solved with the aid of MATLAB.This would allow us to obtain the desired approximate solution for the problem at hand.

Reconstruct the Heat Conduction Model with Memory Dependent Derivative

The classical heat conduction equation is derived from the assumption that the temperature increases immediately after heat transfer, but the increase of temperature is a slow process, so the memory-dependent heat conduction model has been reconstructed. Numerical results show that the solution of the initial boundary value problem of the new model is similar to that of the classical heat conduction equation, but its propagation speed is slower than that of the latter. In addition, the propagation speed of the former is also affected by time delay and kernel function.

Heat transfer characteristics of thin power-law liquid films over horizontal stretching sheet with internal heating and variable thermal coefficient

The effect of internal heating source on the film momentum and thermal transport characteristic of thin finite power-law liquids over an accelerating unsteady horizontal stretched interface is studied. Unlike most classical works in this field, a general surface temperature distribution of the liquid film and the generalized Fourier＇s law for varying thermal conductivity are taken into consideration. Appropriate similarity transformations are used to convert the strongly nonlinear governing partial differential equations （PDEs） into a boundary value problem with a group of two-point ordinary differential equations （ODEs）. The correspondence between the liquid film thickness and the unsteadiness parameter is derived with the BVP4C program in MATLAB. Numerical solutions to the self-similarity ODEs are obtained using the shooting technique combined with a Runge-Kutta iteration program and Newton＇s scheme. The effects of the involved physical parameters on the fluid＇s horizontal velocity and temperature distribution are presented and discussed.
