Thermal Analysis of Composite Hollow Cylinders Using COMSOL Software

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 3

Abstract

The composite hollow cylinders are used in design of steam pipes and electrical cable wires where insulating material is added to them so as to avoid the heat transfer to surroundings and stream turbine where the stream running in pipe. The stream generated in the boiler is taken into pipes up to the steam turbine.For these reasons it is necessary to know the temperature distribution in these composites. In this paper the thermal analysis of composite cylinders for a steady state heat transfer with convective boundary conditions is done with the help of COMSOL. Solution is obtained for steady state temperature distribution for a hollow cylinder by COMSOL software.
