A new type of boundary condition in convective heat transfer problems
Abstract
A procedure for the solution of convective heat transfer problems with the use of a new kind of boundary condition is presented and its features are discussed. It is shown that the method of conjugate problem reduction to a heat conduction equation with a generalized boundary condition can be applied to various conjugate problems and can allow simplification of their solution. Examples are given, showing that the effect of conjugation can be small or great, depending on the character of change of the temperature difference along a streamlined body and the ratio between the thermal resistances of the body and heat agent.
