Abstract

Non-Fourier one-dimensional unsteady heat conduction in a moving medium is investigated by using the Cattaneo-Vernotte- Christov-Jordan (CVCJ) heat flux model for medium speeds less than (sub-critical), equal to (critical), and greater than (super-critical) the thermal wave speed. Coupled partial differential equations are solved simultaneously by a finite volume numerical method. Temperature and heat flux distributions for sub-critical, critical, and super-critical flow conditions are presented for two example problems. The importance of boundary conditions on the thermal wave propagation in both sub-critical and super-critical cases is discussed. Approximate analytical solutions are presented which qualitatively substantiate the numerical results.
