Heat Transfer in Aircraft Propulsion

The lecture covers steady, one-dimensional heat conduction in various geometries including plane walls, cylinders, and spheres, under steady-state conditions without distributed energy sources. It discusses the integration of the heat conduction equation with constant thermal conductivity and includes examples of composite materials with specific boundary conditions. The document also outlines the process for determining temperature distributions in these systems.

Steady, One-Dimensional Heat Conduction in a


Plane Wall
The general three-dimensional heat-conduction equation in Cartesian Coord.

For steady-state conditions with no distributed source or sink of energy within the
wall, the appropriate form of the heat equation is

If the thermal conductivity of the wall material is


assumed to be constant, the equation may be
integrated twice to obtain the general solution

Example
A plane wall is a composite of two materials, A and B. The
wall of material A has uniform heat generation q˙=1.5x106,
kA = 75 W/m.K, and thickness LA = 50 mm. The wall
material B has no generation with kB =150 W/m K and
thickness LB = 20 mm. The inner surface of material A is
well insulated, while the outer surface of material B is
cooled by a water stream with T ͚ = 30C and h= 1000 W/m2
.K.
1. Sketch the temperature distribution that exists in the
composite under steady-state conditions.
2. Determine the temperature T0 of the insulated surface
and the temperature T2 of the cooled surface.

wall A with BCS
