This paper contains an exact solution for the transient temperature distribution and the associated quasi-static thermal stresses and deformations which arise in a finite circular disk subjected to an instantaneous point heat source acting on its periphery. The solutions given are in the form of double infinite series, and extensive illustrative numerical results are included. The solutions are pertinent to problems which occur in welding engineering and in modern nuclear technology.

This paper contains exact solutions for the transient temperature distribution and the associated quasi-static thermal stresses and deformations which arise in a thin circular disk of finite radius subjected to a continuous point heat source acting on its periphery. It has been proven in this paper that the solutions of this type of problem may be obtained by integrating the time variable of the corresponding solutions in the case of an instantaneous point heat source. The solutions are given in the form of double infinite series and graphical representations of the solutions in dimensionless terms are included. Reference is made to methods of applying the solutions to shapes other than disks. The solutions are pertinent to problems which occur in welding engineering and modern nuclear technology.

This paper contains an exact solution for the transient temperature distribution, as well as for the accompanying quasi-static thermal stresses and deformations, which arise in an infinitely long elastic circular shaft if its surface temperature undergoes a sudden uniform change over a finite band between two cross sections and is steadily maintained thereafter. The solution given is in the form of definite integrals and infinite series, whose convergence is discussed. Extensive illustrative numerical results are included.

Determination of temperature and thermal stresses distribution in power boiler elements with use inverse heat conduction method The following paper presents the method for solving one-dimensional inverse boundary heat conduction problems. The method is used to estimate the unknown thermal boundary condition on inner surface of a thick-walled Y-branch. Solution is based on measured temperature transients at two points inside the element's wall thickness. Y-branch is installed in a fresh steam pipeline in a power plant in Poland. Determination of an unknown boundary condition allows for the calculation of transient temperature distribution in the whole element. Next, stresses caused by non-uniform transient temperature distribution and by steam pressure inside a Y-branch are calculated using the finite element method. The proposed algorithm can be used for thermal-strength state monitoring in similar elements, when it is not possible to determine a 3-D thermal boundary condition. The calculated temperature and stress transients can be used for the calculation of element durability. More accurate temperature and stress monitoring will contribute to a substantial decrease of maximal stresses that occur during transient start-up and shut-down processes.
