NEW ANALYTICAL SOLUTION FOR SOLVING STEADY-STATE HEAT CONDUCTION PROBLEMS WITH SINGULARITIES
ABSTRACT
A problem of steady-state heat conduction which presents singularities is solved in this paper by using the conformal mapping method. The principle of this method is based on the Schwarz-Christoffel transformation. The considered problem is a semi-infinite medium with two different isothermal surfaces separated by an adiabatic annular disc. We show that the thermal resistance can be determined without solving the governing equations. We determine a simple and exact expression that provides the thermal resistance as a function of the ratio of annular disc radii.
