Transient Heat Conduction Problem

Purpose Large structural objects, primarily concrete bridges, can be reinforced by gluing to their stretched surface tapes of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP). The condition for this technology to work requires the quality of the bonding of FRP and the concrete to be perfect. Possible defects may arise in the phase of construction but also as a result of long-term fatigue loads. These defects having different forms of voids and discontinuities in the bonding layer are difficult to detect by optical inspection. This paper aims to describe the development of a rapid and nondestructive method for quantitative assessment of the debonding between materials. Design/methodology/approach The applied technique belongs to the wide class of active infrared (IR) thermography, the principle of which is to heat (or cool) the investigated object, and determine the properties of interest from the recorded, by an IR camera, temperature field. The methodology implemented in this work is to uniformly heat for a few seconds, using a set of halogen lamps, the FRP surface attached to the concrete. The parameter of interest is the thermal resistance of the layer separating the polymer tape and the concrete. The presence of voids and debonding will result in large values of this resistance. Its value is retrieved by solving an inverse transient heat conduction problem. This is accomplished by minimizing, in the sense of least squares, the difference between the recorded and simulated temperatures. The latter is defined as a solution of a 1D transient heat conduction problem with the already mentioned thermal resistance treated as the only decision variable. Findings A general method has been developed, which detects debonding of the FRP tapes from the concrete. The method is rapid and nondestructive. Owing to a special selection of the compared dimensionless measured and simulated temperatures, the method is not sensitive to the surface quality (roughness and emissivity). Measurements and calculation may be executed within seconds. The efficiency of the technique has been shown at a sample, where the defects have been artificially introduced in a controlled manner. Originality/value A quantitative assessment procedure which can be used to determine the extent of the debonding has been developed. The procedure uses inverse technique whose result is the unknown thermal resistance between the member and the FRP strip.

Transient Heat Conduction Problem

AbstractSome new conservation laws for the transient heat conduction problem for heat transfer in a straight fin are constructed. The thermal conductivity is given by a power law in one case and by a linear function of temperature in the other. Conservation laws are derived using the direct method when thermal conductivity is given by the power law and the multiplier method when thermal conductivity is given as a linear function of temperature. The heat transfer coefficient is assumed to be given by the power law function of temperature. Furthermore, we determine the Lie point symmetries associated with the conserved vectors for the model with power law thermal conductivity.

A new approach is developed for solving the initial value, steady periodic heat conduction problem in steady-state die casting. Three characteristics found in nearly all die casting processes are exploited directly: The casting is thin compared with its overall size, its thermal conductivity is high compared with that of the mold, and the cycle time is short compared with the start-up transient of the process. Under these conditions, it is reasonable to neglect the transverse temperature gradients in the casting and assume that all die temperatures below a certain depth from the cavity surface are independent of time. The transient die temperatures near the cavity surface are represented by a polynomial expansion in the depth coordinate, with time-varying coefficients determined by a Galerkin method. This leads to a set of ordinary differential equations on the cavity surface, which govern the transient interaction between the casting and the die. From the time-averaged solution of these equations, special conditions are derived that relate the transient solution near the cavity surface to the three-dimensional steady solution in the die interior. With these conditions, the steady temperatures in the bulk of the die can be determined independently of the explicit surface transients. This reduces the effort of solving a complex transient heat conduction problem to little more than finding a steady solution alone. The overall approach provides a general analytical tool, which is capable of predicting complex thermal interactions in large multicomponent dies.
