Theoretical Model on the Temperature Profile within the Cylindrical Conductor heated by Induction Current |
| Abstract |
A theoretical model was proposed to predict the temperature profile within the solid cylindrical conductor subject to induction heating. The model takes into an account of heat conduction inside the conductor with the volumetric heat source supplied by induced current, incorporated with heat transfer between the cylindrical conductor and surrounding fluid. It is found that the geometrical shape and the frequency can affect the temperature distribution within the conductor. |
