Abstract

Transient heat conduction in fins undergoing different kinds of convective processes (film, transition, nucleated boiling and natural convection) as in multiboiling processes take place, is a strongly non-linear problem because of the abrupt changes in the heat transfer coefficient that occur at certain temperatures. Transient equations for the thermal fields and fluxes are solved simultaneously, giving the time constant of the process; the stationary solution is compared with the numerical or experimental values of other authors. Temperature dependencies of the heat transfer coefficient and the thermal conductivity is assumed due to the large interval of temperatures occurring. Network Simulation Method is used for the numerical solution, which gives simultaneously thermal field of temperatures and heat fluxes.
