| dc.description.abstract | This work has formulated and developed models for predicting the temperature distributions and the distortions induced in metallic plates by the heat transfer process. Fouriers series of heat conduction equation was considered by using finite difference method.Finite difference models have been developed. Furthermore, a series of load temperature curves for a bead-on-metallic plate have been calculated with suitable convection boundary conditions and material properties. The result form a sparse block tridiagonal matrix,The matrix was program into mathematical computational matrix laboratory MATLAB and came up with numerical results and compared with results obtained from previous research. The effect of different parameters on the heat transfer response, including the temperature speeds, heat inputs,thicknesses of metallic plates.And lastly analysis of error was done and order of con vergence of the error found to be of first order. | en_US |
