Presented in this paper is a solution for countercurrent heat exchange between two parallel vessels embedded in an infinite medium with a linear temperature gradient along the axes of the vessels. The velocity profile within the vessel is assumed to be parabolic. This solution describes the temperature field within the vessels, as well as in the tissue, and establishes that the intravessel temperature is not uniform, as is generally assumed to be the case. An explicit expression for the intervessel thermal resistance based on the difference between cup-mixed mean temperatures is derived.

Abstract This paper theoretical analysis the internal force of the fixed parabolic arches under radient temperature gradient field incorporating shear deformations. The effective centroid of the arch-section under linear temperature gradient is derived. Based on force method and energy method, the analytical solutions of the internal force of fixed parabolic arches at pre-buckling under linear temperature gradient field are derived. A parameter study was carried out to study the influence of linear temperature gradient on the internal force of the fixed parabolic arches with different rise-span ratio and varying slenderness ratio. It is found that the temperature gradient and the rise-span ratio has a significant influence on the internal force of the parabolic arches, the influence of shear deformation causes the bending moment increase while the axial force decreases, and the axial force of parabolic arches decreases as the rise-span ratio increases.

In a structure, beams are often connected with other members such as columns, which provide considerable restraints against the rotation and extension of the beam ends. When a beam is subjected to an in-plane temperature gradient field, the temperature gradient tends to change the curvature of the beam in the transverse direction and expand the beam in the axial direction. The restrained actions will produce bending moments and compressive forces in the beam, which increase with an increase of the temperature differential and average temperature of the temperature gradient field. When these actions reach critical values, the elastically restrained beam may bifurcate from its primary in-plane equilibrium state to a lateral-torsional buckled equilibrium configuration. This paper carries out linear and nonlinear thermoelastic analyses of an elastically restrained beam of doubly symmetric open thin-walled cross-section that is subjected to a linear temperature gradient field over its cross-section. It is found that geometric nonlinearity influences the thermoelastic responses of the beam to the temperature changes significantly. The influence decreases with an increase of the stiffness of the elastic restraints.
