Abstract
This paper describes a numerical investigation of the transient temperature field in a solid with a conjugate heat transfer method. The basic approach is based on the strong partitioned coupling of a finite-volume Navier-Stokes solver and a finite-element heat conduction solver. The numerical model employs a quasidynamic algorithm in which the transient thermal field in the solid is coupled with a sequence of steady states in the fluid. Experimental results from a simple test case are compared to numerical simulations and they are found to correspond to within the experimental uncertainties. This model represents a contribution to the field of real-time transient heat loads in solids.
