Calculation of the Maximum Slope Angles of the Temperature Curve for the Single-Flow Non-Stationary Method of Deriving the Thermal Characteristics of Heat Transfer Surfaces

Abstract

Results are presented for the solution of the problem of gas flow in a porous body with the presence of a temperature “step” in the range 1–100 of the non-dimensional heat-transfer coefficient, while accounting for longitudinal thermal conductivity. The problem was solved using the numerical finite difference method. Maximum slope angles were derived for temperature curves that can be used to obtain the thermal characteristics of high-compact heat transfer surfaces with the single-flow non-stationary method. Recommendations were provided regarding the range of applicability of the method, taking into account the new received results.
