A PERTURBATION SOLUTION FOR THE NONLINEAR RADIATION HEAT TRANSFER PROBLEM
Sinopsis
A perturbation technique is developed for determining the transient temperature in a slab, insulated on one face and subject to nonlinear thermal radiation at the other face. The slab is initially at a uniform temperature and is assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic; the physical properties are assumed to be independent of temperature. Temperature distributions and heat flux at the radiating boundary are presented in a dimensionless, graphical form for a wide range of parameters, and the former are compared with previously obtained analog computer results.
