Analytical Study of Temperature Distribution of a Plane Wall Subjected to a Constant Heat Generation with Variable Thermal Conductivity Using Different Materials
Hussein K. Jobair
Abstract: An analytical study had been accomplished to find the effects of the variation of thermal conductivity on the temperature distribution of a plane wall using different materials. Plane wall exposed to a constant heat generation inside the material under study. A wide range of temperatures has been taken into consideration. Starting from 0C to a high temperature approximately equal to the melting point temperature of the material under study. The patterns of the temperature distribution of plane wall have been computed using analytical solution by programming with MATLAB. The effect of heat generation was taken into consideration. The comparison between results was made for each system when using different types of materials to observe the pattern of temperature distribution.
