Finite difference solution of radiation effects on MHD unsteady free-convection flow over vertical plate with variable surface temperature.
In this paper we present a weak formulation of a two-dimensional stationary heat conduction problem with the radiation boundary condition. The problem can be described by an operator which is monotone on the convex set of admissible functions. The relation between classical and weak solutions as well as the convergence of the finite element method to the weak solution in the norm of the Sobolev space are examined.
We find, under the viewpoint of the hyperbolic model of heat conduction, the exact analytical solution for the temperature distribution in all points of two semi-infinite homogeneous isotropic bodies that initially are at uniform temperatures and , respectively, suddenly placed together at time and assuming that the contact between the bodies is perfect. We make graphics of the obtained temperature profiles of two bodies at different times and points. And finally, we compare the temperature...
Modelling of building heat transfer needs two basic material characteristics: heat conduction factor and thermal capacity. Under some simplifications these two factors can be determined from a rather simple equipment, generating heat from one of two aluminium plates into the material sample and recording temperature on the contacts between the sample and the plates. However, the numerical evaluation of both characteristics leads to a non-trivial optimization problem. This article suggests an efficient...
