An Integral Approach to Transient Heat-Conduction Problems with Phase Transition,

摘要

An approximate method for studying transient heat-conduction problems is presented. Its application to various linear problems and nonlinear problems involving phase transitions is described by means of several idealized problems. The method is basically a refined version of the well-known Karman-Pohlhausen integral technique in boundary-layer theory,and represents a further development of the basic ideas previously exploited to calculate skin friction and heat transfer in boundary-layer flows. The approximate solutions obtained are extensively compared with existing exact solutions and those of the classical Karman-Pohlhausen method. From the simplicity and accuracy of the present method as demonstrated in the results,the potential utility of the method in providing simple,engineering solutions to complex aerodynamic heating problems can be inferred.
