Thermal Analyzer Program


This program solves N-dimensional transient heat transfer problems by the analysis of an analogous network of nodes joined by conductors. A capacitance, C, a heat generation rate, Q, and a temperature, T, are associated with each node. A conductance, K, is associated with each conductor. Convection and radiation are evaluated at the beginning of each time interval. Conduction, if variable, may be made a function of the average temperature of the two connecting nodes. Such conduction is evaluated at the beginning of each time interval.
