Abstract

Unsteady heat conduction in cylindrical thermal insulation has been analysed using the integral method. The time domain considered is after the inner surface has reached steady state and when the temperature distribution through the insulation is undergoing changes towards the steady state. The temperature profile assumed is a product of a polynomial and a logarithmic function. Closed-form solutions in terms of dimensionless parameters have been obtained. The results are presented in graphical form for ready use. The solution can also be used for thick cylinders.
