Non-Fourier heat conduction in a finite medium with insulated boundaries and arbitrary initial conditions☆ Amin Moosaie Department of Mechanical Engineering, Iran University of Science and Technology, Narmak, Tehran 16844, Iran Available online 14 September 2007

Abstract The non-Fourier transient heat conduction in a finite medium with insulated boundaries under the influence of arbitrary initial conditions is investigated analytically. The solution is expressed in the form of Fourier cosine series. The obtained analytical closed-form solution can be used for validation of numerical solutions. The resulting solution is valid for any choice of integrable initial conditions. The significant feature of proposed solution is its generality. In order to show the applicability of the presented solution, two numerical examples are solved. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

1. Introduction During the past few years there has been research concerned with departures from the classical Fourier heat conduction law. The motivation for this research was to eliminate the paradox of an infinite thermal wave speed which is in contradiction with Einstein's theory of relativity and thus provide a theory to explain the experimental data on ‘second sound’ in liquid and solid helium at low temperatures [1,2]. In addition to low temperature applications, nonFourier theories have attracted more attention in engineering sciences, because of their applications in high heat flux conduction, short time behavior as found, for example, in laser-material interaction, etc. The classical Fourier conduction law relates the heat flux vector q to the temperature gradient ▿ϑ, by the relation q ¼ kj#;

ð1Þ

where the material constant λ is the thermal conductivity. Eq. (1) along with the conservation of energy gives the classical parabolic heat equation aD# ¼

∂# ; ∂t

ð2Þ

where a = λ/ρc, ρ, c and Δ are thermal diffusivity, mass density, specific heat capacity and Laplace's differential operator, respectively. Eq. (2) yields temperature solutions which imply an infinite speed of heat propagation. ☆

In order to eliminate this paradox, Cattaneo [3] and Vernotte [4] independently postulated a time-dependent relaxation model for the heat flux in solids: q þ s0

where τ0 is the so-called relaxation time (a non-negative constant). If the relaxation time vanishes, i.e. τ0 = 0, the heat flux law of the non-Fourier model defined by Eq. (3) reduces to the classical Fourier's model for heat conduction, i.e., Eq. (1). However, this model was first proposed by Maxwell [5]. Inserting Eq. (3) into the energy conservation equation, the hyperbolic heat transport equation, including source term, takes the form aD# ¼

(4) with different initial and boundary conditions can be browsed in literature. Baumeister and Hamill [6] have given the solution for a semi-infinite problem. Sadd and Cha [7] have solved Eq. (4) for axisymmetric conduction in cylindrically bounded domains. Several solutions for finite medium have been given in [8–14]. Tang and Araki [15,16] have solved the problem of non-Fourier heat conduction in a finite medium under periodic surface disturbance. The periodic condition in their works was a harmonic one.

Mathematica®. Abdel-Hamid [18] solved non-Fourier heat conduction under periodic surface disturbance using the finite integral transform approach. Tang and Araki [19,20] investigated the non-Fourier heat conduction in a finite medium under pulse surface heating. Glass et al. [21] presented an explicit analytical solution for the hyperbolic heat conduction in a semi-infinite solid subjected to a periodic on-off surface heat flux and used a finite-difference scheme to solve the non-linear cases with surface radiation. Yen and Wu [22] gave a semi-analytical numerical solution of hyperbolic heat conduction in a finite medium with periodic thermal disturbance and surface radiation. Their periodic condition was an on-off one. Lewandowska and Malinowski [23] gave an analytical solution of the hyperbolic heat conduction for a finite medium symmetrically heated on both sides. Moosaie solved the problem of hyperbolic heat conduction in a finite medium subjected to arbitrary periodic surface disturbance [24]. In this paper, we are going to solve analytically the (1 + 1)-dimensional non-Fourier conduction equation for a finite medium with insulated boundaries and arbitrary initial conditions. The method of solution is the well-known separation of variables method and the solution is expressed in terms of Fourier cosine series. Finally, the solutions for the two special choices of initial temperatures are presented as two examples that demonstrate the applicability of the proposed solution procedure. 2. Analysis Let us consider a slab of thickness L composed of an isotropic heat conducting material with insulated boundaries in which one-dimensional heat conduction and constant thermal properties prevail. The governing Eq. (4) in this case and with the assumption of vanishing source term reduces to a

In this paper, we are interested in the non-Fourier heat conduction in a finite medium with insulated boundary conditions and arbitrary initial conditions. The boundary and initial conditions for such a problem are as follows. ∂ ∂ #ð0; t Þ ¼ 0; #ð L; t Þ ¼ 0; ∂x ∂x #ð x; 0Þ ¼ F ð xÞ;

3. Numerical examples In order to show how the presented solution works, the obtained general solution is reduced to two special cases. For the first example, the initial temperature distribution is defined as   2#0 L L  x #ð x; 0Þ ¼ F ð xÞ ¼ ; ð17Þ 2 L 2

The dimensionless temperature at X = 0 as a function of Fourier number Fo for different Vernotte numbers Ve2 is plotted in Figs. 2, 3, 4, and 5. The graph at X = 1 is the same, because of the symmetry of boundary and initial conditions. The dimensionless temperature at X = 0.5 is presented in Fig. 6 for Ve2 = 1. As another numerical example, we consider the initial temperature in the form of a finite step function given by #ð x; 0Þ ¼ F ð xÞ ¼

The temperature distribution (20) is depicted in Fig. 7. The initial rate of temperature change is assumed to be zero which is stated in Eq. (18). The temperature distribution due to this choice of initial conditions can be calculated by introducing these initial conditions to Eqs. (13b), (15), and (16). The obtained results are presented in Figs. 8, 9, 10, and 11. The dimensionless temperature at X = 0.5 is also presented in Fig. 12 for Ve 2 = 1. 4. Concluding remarks In this paper, the (1 + 1)-dimensional non-Fourier heat conduction equation was solved analytically for a finite medium under the influence of arbitrary initial conditions and insulated boundaries. The solution is expressed in terms of Fourier cosine series. The important feature of this solution is its generality, namely, it is valid for any choice of initial conditions and it can be used for validation of numerical recipes. In order to show how the proposed method of solution works, two numerical examples have been solved. The graphs demonstrate that the time needed for reaching steady-state situation is increased with increase of the relaxation time τ0. This result could be p expected, ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi because the speed of propagation of heat waves is inversely proportional to relaxation time via the relation v ¼ a=s0 . Another conclusion from the graphs is that the shape of the heat wave is inherited from the shape of initial temperature distribution within the medium.
