00 Heat Transfer Analysis Summary

Heat Transfer Analysis
 Heat Transfer Analysis
- In nature, heat is transferred when there is a temperature change within an object or a material
- Heat transfer analysis is used to predict the amount of transferred energy caused by the temperature change in the object.
 Method of Heat transfer

Conduction
Transfer of energy from a region of a higher temperature to that of a lower temperature by the chain reaction of vibrating molecules or electrons
Convection
Transfer of energy by movement through a medium, like air or liquid
Radiation
Exchange of energy between two distant objects, separated by no particular medium, via electromagnetic waves,.
 Governing equation for steady state heat transfer analysis is

Types of Heat Transfer Analysis
 Linear Heat Transfer Analysis
• The conditions that induce heat transfer are independent of temperature.
Nonlinear Heat Transfer Analysis
• The conditions that induce heat transfer are dependent on temperature.
Steady State Heat Transfer Analysis
• It is the state of equilibrium of energy at which the amount of inflow and outflow energy are equal.
• As a structure is heated, the temperature of the structure increases with time. This is called the transient state
at which conditions vary over a period of time.
• Over a period of time, the amount of inflow and outflow energy become equal and, thus, no more temperature
change occurs.
• This is called the steady state and the analysis of such a state is called steady state heat transfer analysis.
Transient Heat Transfer Analysis
• All cases except steady state, the temperature of a structure varies with respect to time.
• In such a case, the internal temperature of a material changes with respect to its location and time. Therefore,
a function of the location and time is needed to perform the analysis.
Chip 3
Step

Important Terminology
Initial Temperature
• The temperature of a structure at its time of creation is defined as an initial condition of heat
transfer analysis.
• Can be entered as an analysis control data and apply it on entire structure.
• It is unnecessary to establish the initial temperature in steady state heat transfer analysis;
however, it is required in unsteady state heat transfer analysis.
Specified Temperature
• Specified temperature forms a boundary condition in heat transfer analysis, and the location at
which a specific temperature is assigned maintains the given temperature.
• Play a similar role as in structural analysis.
Chip 4
Step

 Heat Generation
• Simulate the internal heat generation in a solid and is used as a load vector in heat transfer
analysis.
• Heat generation is defined as the energy per unit time per unit volume.
• As the volume of a structure increases, total heat generation rate increases.
• Play a similar role as the self-weight in the structural analysis.
Heat Flux
• Simulate the heat flowing into a face and is used as a load vector in heat transfer analysis.
• Heat flux is defined as the energy per unit time per unit area.
• As the surface area of a structure increases, the amount of generated energy increases.
• Play a similar role as the pressure load in the structural analysis.
Chip 5
Step

Conduction
• When the temperature of a body increases, the heat flows into the body as its molecules gain
kinetic energy and move more vigorously.
• If a specific part of the body is heated, the molecules gain energy and become vigorous as
they collide with each other, which causes vibration.
• The chain reaction remains active until there is no temperature change. The energy is
transferred by the movement of neighboring molecules in a stationary fluid or solid matter.
• Thermal Conductivity is the property of a material’s ability to conduct heat.
• The heat flux by conduction is measured using Fourier’s Law.
= Heat flow rate unit area in direction n
Knn = thermal conductivity in direction n

T = temperature
dT/dn = thermal gradient in direction n
Chip 6
Step

 Convection
• Heat is transferred as liquid or air with high and low temperature parts move around.
• Forced Convection is the artificial convection in which a fluid is forced to flow above the surface
of a body using a pump. Free Convection occurs when the buoyancy of a fluid is caused by the
variation of density within the fluid due to the temperature c.
• The heat flow rate of convection is directly proportional to temperature change.
• The heat flux by convection is calculated using Newton’s Law.
q  
hf TTBS TB = Heat flow rate per unit area between surface and fluid
hf = convective film coefficient

TS = surface temperature
TB = bulk fluid temperature
Chip 7
Step

 Radiation
• Exchange of energy between two distant objects, separated by no particular medium, via
electromagnetic waves.
• The radiation heat flow between the faces of two objects is calculated using Stefan-
Boltzmann Law.
A i Fij Ti  Tj

σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant
ε = emissivity
Ai = area of surface I
Fij = form factor from surface I to surface j
Ti = absolute temperature of surface I
Tj = absolute temperature of surface j
Chip 8
Step

Thermal Strain
• The temperature change tends to alter the volume of an object.

• The deformation of an object is calculated using coefficient of thermal expansion, α, and
temperature change, ΔT.
t ( T ) = Thermal Strain
α = Coefficient of thermal expansion
ΔT = temperature
Thermal Stress
• The stress caused by the deformation of an object due to the temperature change.
• For statically determinate structures, only deformation occurs; stress is ignored.
• For statically indeterminate structures, thermal stress occurs.
t E  ( T ) = Thermal Stress
ΔT = temperature
E = Elastic Modulus

Forced Convection is the artificial convection in which a fluid is

forced to flow above the surface of the body using a pump.
Free Convection occurs when the buoyancy of fluid is caused
by the variation of density within the fluid due to the
temperature change.
