ISBN: 354033470X ISBN-13: 9783540334705 Publisher: Springer OUR PRICE: $208.99 Product Type: Hardcover - Other Formats Published: October 2006 Annotation: The book presents a solution for direct and inverse heat conduction problems. In the first part, the authors discuss the theoretical basis for the heat transfer process. In the second part, they present selected theoretical and numerical problems in the form of exercises with their subsequent solutions. Such layout of the book will allow the reader to become more familiar with step-by-step calculation methods and with the practical application of the equations to the solution of design and utilization problems of thermal machinery. It will also help to master complex mathematics behind the heat transfer theory. The book covers one-, two- and three dimensional problems which are solved by using exact and approximate analytical methods and numerical methods such as: the finite difference method, the finite volume method, the finite element method and the boundary method. Unlike other books on the subject, the superposition method is thoroughly presented. Particular attention is paid to the solution of inverse heat conduction problems. The authors took special care that the solved inverse problems can be implemented in indirect measurements of boundary heat flux and heat transfer coefficient. |

| Publisher Description: This book is devoted to the concept of simple and inverse heat conduction problems. The process of solving direct problems is based on the tempera- ture determination when initial and boundary conditions are known, while the solving of inverse problems is based on the search for boundary condi- tions when temperature properties are known, provided that temperature is the function of time, at the selected inner points of a body. In the first part of the book (Chaps. 1-5), we have discussed theoretical basis for thermal conduction in solids, motionless liquids and liquids that move in time. In the second part of the book, (Chapters 6-26), we have discussed at great length different engineering problems, which we have presented together with the proposed solutions in the form of theoretical and mathematical examples. It was our intention to acquaint the reader in a step-by-step fashion with all the mathematical derivations and solutions to some of the more significant transient and steady-state heat conduction problems with respect to both, the movable and immovable heat sources and the phenomena of melting and freezing. Lots of attention was paid to non-linear problems. The methods for solving heat conduction problems, i. e. the exact and approximate analytical methods and numerical methods, such as the finite difference method, the finite volume method, the finite element method and the boundary element method are discussed in great detail. Aside from algorithms, applicable computational programs, written in a FORTRAN language, were given. |
