Heat flow in laminated composites parallel to the layering when the surface heating is of high frequency
Abstract
When the layers of a semi-infinite composite are perpendicular to the bounding surface, and high-frequency heating is applied on the surface, the resulting heat conduction is governed by two equations subject to appropriate symmetry-plane, surface, and interface boundary conditions. In seeking the solution one is led to the requirement of finding the roots of a complex eigenvalue equation. This is accomplished for when frequency goes to infinity in the form of an asymptotic expansion, progressing in inverse powers of the square root of frequency. Except for a thin transition layer adjacent to the surface, the ensuing temperature profile parallel to the surface will develop a near-discontinuity as one penetrates into the body. For the harmonic input of constant amplitude, the temperature will rise within an ever-narrowing layer from zero to a finite value at the interface, as one passes from the matrix to the filler layer of higher conductivity.
