Transient heat conduction in composite slabs for a heat flux varying exponentially with time.
ResearchPublished 1955
Solutions for transient heat conduction into single and composite slabs exposed at one surface to a heating rate which increases exponentially with time. It is assumed that the material properties are independent of temperature and that the unheated face is effectively insulated. Comparisons are made with solutions for other types of heat-input functions, and examples are given for several materials.
