Thermal Stresses In Multilayer Gun Barrel With Interlayer Thermal Contact Resistance

摘要

A hybrid numerical method of the Laplace transformation and the finite difference is applied to solve the transient heat transfer problem of a gun barrel, in which the interlayer thermal contact resistance between the steel cylinder and the chrome coating is taken into account in the boundary conditions. The general solutions of the governing equations are first solved in the transform domain. Then the inversion to the real domain is completed by the method of Fourier series technique. The transient distributions of temperature and thermal stresses for the gun barrel in the real domain are calculated numerically.
