NUMERICAL STUDY ON HEAT TRANSFER IN MULTILAYERED STRUCTURES OF MAIN GEOMETRIC FORMS MADE OF DIFFERENT MATERIALS

Abstract

The article proposed a general research scheme of heat transfer process in multilayer constructions for three basic geometric forms in order to simulate fire distribution. The scheme is based on linear differential equations, the Fourier method and the modified method of Eigen functions. The work considers five different layers’ design and does not take into account internal heat sources. In this regard, a one-parameter family of boundary problems were solved. The authors simulated heat transfer for the Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical coordinates. Structures comprised several materials each having thermal properties varying with temperature.
