A simplified model of a pipe mounted thermowell provides a measure of insight into the design and application of intrusive pipe fittings. A combination of Fourier and Green’s function methods together with a distributed load model of the thermowell/pipe wall interface are used to calculate the support compliance and subsequently the natural frequencies of the thermowell. These are compared with limited though independent calculations. This comparison confirms a profound reduction in natural frequencies for commonly encountered thermowell installations, reductions that should not be ignored where the risk of flow-induced resonance is high.

An exact approach for solving both transient and steady state conduction and surface radiation problems is presented. The method is based on the use of Green’s function, and the temperature field is obtained by solving an integral equation. This is in contrast to the approach presented in radiative heat transfer texts in which temperature profiles are obtained from the simultaneous solution of coupled integral and differential equations. The analysis presented in this paper provides insight into the solution of this important class of problems. The method is illustrated by solving two representative problems. The first problem considered is the steady state analysis of a radiating fin. The second problem considered is the transient analysis of a radiating target, which is used to determine the temporal response of radiation thermometers.

The frequencies of the partly deuterated ethylenes were predicted by the method of Green's function analysis. These values are compared with those obtained by the average rule and complete isotope rule. It is shown that the Green's function analysis gives a better insight into the isotopic rule from the molecular dynamic point of view.

The second problem considered is the transient analysis of a radiating target, which is used to determine the temporal response of radiation thermometers.
