31. One-dimensional Transient Conduction
One-dimensional transient conduction refers to a case where the temperature varies temporally and in one spatial direction.
For example, temperature varies with x and time.
Three cases of 1-D conduction are commonly studied: conduction through a plate, in a cylinder, and in a sphere.
In all three cases, the surface of the solid is exposed to convection.
The exact analytical solutions to the three cases are very complicated.
However, an approximate solution can be obtained by using graphical tools.
The graphs allow you to find the centerline temperature at any given time, and the temperature at any location based on the centerline temperature.
