In this article the direct domain-mapping technique is applied in the boundary element method (BEM) to investigate the heat conduction in composites consisting of multiple anisotropic media with embedded point heat sources. By use of a linear coordinate transformation, the physical domain is mapped to an auxiliary plane for 2D or space for 3D, where the heat conduction is considered isotropic. ...

longitudinal heat conduction is an important parameter in the cryogenic field, especially in cryogenic heat exchangers. in the present work, the parasitic effect of tube wall longitudinal heat conduction on temperature measurement has been studied in cryogenic laminar hydrogen flow. the effects of various parameters such as wall cold end temperature, wall thermal conductivity, gas volumetric fl...

The paper deals with the inverse determination of heat source in an unsteady heat conduction problem. The governing equation for the unsteady Fourier heat conduction in 2D region with unknown internal heat source is known as the inverse boundary-initial-value problem. The identification of strength of the heat source is achieved by using the boundary condition, initial condition and a known val...

The non-Fourier effect in heat conduction is important in strong thermal environments and thermal shock problems. Generally, commercial FE codes are not available for analysis of non-Fourier heat conduction. In this study, a meshless formulation is presented for the analysis of the non-Fourier heat conduction in the materials. The formulation is based on the symmetric local weak form of the sec...

In this paper we study the existence and geometric properties of an optimal configuration to a nonlinear optimization problem in heat conduction. The quantity to be minimized is R ∂D Γ(x, uμ)dσ, where D is a fixed domain. A nonconstant temperature distribution is prescribed on ∂D and a volume constraint on the set where the temperature is positive is imposed. Among other regularity properties o...

In the present work, a modified model of heat conduction including higher order of time derivative is derived by extending Green and Naghdi theory without energy dissipation. We introduce two phase lag times to include the thermal displacement gradient and the heat flux in the heat conduction and depict microscopic responses more precisely. The constructed model is applied to s...

This paper considers a linear one dimensional inverse heat conduction problem with non constant thermal diffusivity and two unknown terms in a heated bar with unit length. By using the WKB method, the heat flux at the end of boundary and initial temperature will be approximated, numerically. By choosing a suitable parameter in WKB method the ill-posedness of solution will be improved. Finally, ...
