Two-dimensional heat conduction in the laminate with the functionally graded properties
Alina Radzikowska · Civil And Environmental Engineering Reports · 2012
The object of the contribution is the classical Fourier heat conduction in the laminate with functionally graded properties. The laminate is made of two conductors, nonperiodically distributed as laminas along one direction. A macrostructure of the laminate is assumed to be functionally graded along this direction. In order to analyse heat conduction, the tolerance averaging technique is used. The approach is based on the book edited by Cz. Woźniak, Michalak and Jedrysiak [10] and by Cz. Woźniak et al. [6]. The aim of this paper is to apply the tolerance model equations of heat conduction for laminate with functionally graded properties to analyse two-dimensional stationary heat transfer. The equations of the tolerance model are solved by the finite difference method.
