NUMERICAL STUDY OF TRANSIENT THREE-DIMENSIONAL HEAT CONDUCTION PROBLEM WITH A MOVING HEAT SOURCE

Abstract

A numerical study of transient three-dimensional heat conduction problem with a moving source is presented. For numerical solution Douglas-Gunn alternating direction implicit method is applied and for the moving heat source flux distribution Gaussian function is used. An influence on numerical solution of input parameters figuring in flux boundary conditions is examined. This include parameters appearing in Gaussian function and heat transfer coefficient from free convection boundaries. Sensitivity of cooling time from 800 to 500 °C with respect to input parameters is also tested.
