2-Dimensional Transient Conduction ____________________________________________________________________________

We have discussed basic finite volume methodology applied to 1-dimensional steady and

transient conduction. It was noted that steady state formulation is a special case of transient

formulation and that transient numerical model does not require any significant changes over the

steady state model.

When the temperature variation in a system under consideration is appreciable in more

than one space dimensions, conduction becomes multidimensional. Majority of our discussion in

extending 1-D formulation to multidimensional formulation will be limited to 2-D conduction in

Cartesian coordinates (x, y) for the simplicity of presentation. Two dimensional conduction in

other orthogonal coordinate systems, such as cylindrical and polar coordinates, are straight

forward.

Finite Volume Equation

The general form of two dimensional transient conduction equation in the Cartesian

coordinate system is

Following the procedures used to integrate one dimensional transient conduction equation, we

integrate Eq.(1) over a control volume as shown in Figure 1.

Collecting terms, we get a finite volume representation of Eq.(1):

where

and

In deriving these expressions, the fully implicit scheme is used to evaluate the average values

during a given time step t as discussed.

Inspection of Eq.(6) shows that temperature TP is influenced by temperatures in the

neighboring four control volumes, TE, TW, TN and TS plus temperature at the immediate previous

time level, T0. Extension of 1-D to 2-D formulation is simply to add influences coming from two

additional control volumes in the y-direction. All coefficients appearing in Eq.(6) are positive.

In evaluating interface conductivities at the north and south sides of control volume, we

employ the same method as discussed for the east and west interfaces.

Expressions for aW and aS are similar to Eq.(9a) and Eq.(9b), respectively.

Solution Method

If we write Eq.(6) for all i’s (2 i N+1) and j’s (2 j M+1) , there result in (N x

M) simultaneous equations for (N x M) unknowns. A direct solution of this large sparse matrix

could take considerable computing time. Since many conduction problems are inherently

nonlinear due to number of factors as discussed in previous chapter, many iteration are usually

needed before reaching a converged solution. Therefore direct solution of nonlinear problem

may require too excessive computing time and is not recommended.

An alternative method is to use an alternate-direction-implicit (ADI) method [1]. The

most common practice is to use TDMA to solve dependent variable along one direction of spatial

coordinate implicitly while treating the dependent variable in the remaining spatial coordinate

explicitly. Fig. 3 shows such an approach called "line-by line" method. In the first step (Fig.3a),

TDMA is used to solve temperatures along the x-direction implicitly while treating temperatures

in the adjacent y-direction as a part of source terms. Thus

Using the index notation, Eq.(10) can be expressed as

Eq.(11) is solved for all j’s (2 j M+1) sweeping in the y-direction (Fig. 3a). After

completing y-direction sweep, we may now treat y-direction implicitly (Fig.3b) to speed up the

convergence. That is

or, in index notation

for all i’s (2 i N+1) (x-direction sweep). Sweeping along the x- and y-direction continues

until the solution converges within a given time step. To bring a faster convergence, it is

recommended that sweeping should start from the boundaries where perturbations originate. In

this way, computation will bring the changes into the calculation domain faster resulting in a

faster convergence.

Boundary Conditions

Treatment of boundary conditions for 2-dimensional conduction is similar to those of 1-

dimensional conduction. In addition to boundary conditions at x=0 and x=L, boundary

conditions are needed at y=0 and y=H, where L and H are the length and height of 2-

dimensional domain. At the boundaries, either one of three boundary conditions, known

temperatures, known heat flux and periodic or combination of these conditions are to be

prescribed. Heat flux is in general nonlinear function of boundary temperature. Detailed

discussions on the treatment of boundary conditions along the x-direction are presented

previously.

. Following the same procedures, we can treat boundary conditions along the y-direction.

If the boundary temperatures are known, boundary conditions are given by

T1,i= T0

TM+1,i = TH (14)

where T0 and TH are given boundary temperatures at y=0 and y=H, respectively at “i” in x-

direction.

Treatment of all nominal boundary conditions on the surface of 2-dimensional geometry

can be handled for all types of boundary conditions; known temperature, known heat flux and

periodic in both x- and y-directions.

Sometimes in the 2-dimensional conduction, one has to deal with internal boundary

conditions to handle the effects of islands as shown in Fig. 5. The temperatures of the interior

region or regions are known. This could happen if interior region carries fluid and has a very

large convective heat transfer coefficient such that temperature at the interface between the fluid

and the solid is equal to the fluid temperature. We do not break up the calculation domain into

many regions and treat the effects of island as nominal boundary for the divided calculation

domains. Using the concept of interfacial conductivity and source term linearization, we can

handle islands very effectively [1]. We let the conductivity of the island be very large so as to

ensure temperature in the island prevails all the way to the interface between the island and the

control volumes adjacent to it. Next let the linearlized source term be represented by

where Tisland is the temperature of the island region.

If the temperature at the interface between the fluid and solid is different from the fluid

temperature, Eq.(17) can not be used. This is the case when the convective coefficient is

moderate and the temperature at the interface is different from the fluid temperature. A more

general treatment of such cases is presented in a later chapter [4].

Three-dimensional transient conduction equation in the cylindrical coordinate is given by

where r is the radial, z, axial and , angular coordinate, respectively as shown in Fig. 6.

Axisymmetric Conduction

First consider a 2-D conduction for the axisymmetric case. For this case, temperature

variation is independent of angular angle () and Eq.(18) reduces to

Figure 6 Cylindrical coordinate system

Finite volume representation of Eq.(19) can be obtained by integrating the equation about

a control volume as defined in Fig. 7. This is left as an exercise. The resulting finite volume

equation is

Comparing the finite volume equations of axisymmetric case and those of Cartesian

coordinate case, we observe the difference is due to geometry of control volume as shown in

Fig. 8. With some modifications in evaluating diffusion conductance and source term, therefore,

we can treat both situations similar way.

In these expressions, angles are in radians.

Again we observe that minor changes in the coefficients and source terms due to the

geometry change are all needed to modify the program written for the Cartesian coordinate

system. A general-purpose 2-dimensional transient as well as steady conduction program that can

be used for all three coordinate systems can be created.

One additional consideration is needed for the boundary condition in the polar coordinate.

The conduction flux along the -direction in the polar coordinate is

General Purpose 2-D Conduction Program

A general purpose 2-dimensional conduction program (cond2d.m) that can handle three

orthogonal geometries is created by extending cond1d.m, that is the general purpose program

created in previous section. Extension of cond1d.m to cond2d.m is straightforward. Cond2d.m

has the same structure and follows the same logic in handling boundary conditions and solution

schemes. No new additional ideas are required. Listing of cond2d.m is shown below and

functions associated with the following example is in webpage.

Familiarity with cond2d.m can be best obtained by applying the program to few example

problems.

dissipation by friction is q''=pV , where V=R. Heat transfer from the surface to the

surrounding fluid is by forced convection on the surface of the metal sleeve and natural convection

plus radiation from the rod. Assume emissivity of the surface to be 0.3 for both surfaces. Calculate
