AbstractDuring the summer of 1955, 53 thermocouples were installed in the ice mass near a crevasse in a glacier in the ice sheet of northern Greenland. Temperatures were observed in 1955 and 1956. The accumulated data were sufficient to prepare a description of the transient thermal behavior of the ice body adjacent to the crevasse. The isotherm maps have provided a base for the computation of heat flux vectors.

In this work, we investigate the transient thermal analysis of two-dimensional cylindrical anisotropic medium subjected to a prescribed temperature at the two end sections and to a heat flux over the whole lateral surface. Due to the complexity of analytically solving the anisotropic heat conduction equation, a numerical solution has been developed. It is based on a coordinate transformation that reduces the anisotropic cylinder heat conduction problem to an equivalent isotropic one, without complicating the boundary conditions but with a more complicated geometry. The equation of heat conduction for this virtual medium is solved by the alternating directions method. The inverse transformation makes it possible to determine the thermal behavior of the anisotropic medium as a function of study parameters: diagonal and cross thermal conductivities, heat flux.

AbstractA finite-difference numerical model is used to simulate the temperature profile at the center of an ice sheet throughout the course of a glaciation. The ice sheet is gradually built to a thickness of 3000 m over about 10 000 years, starting on permafrost. A geothermal heat flux is applied at large depth. For an initial surface temperature of –12.5°C, our model shows that basal melting occurs 72000 years after the onset of the glaciation. The important parameters determining the basal temperatures are the initial temperature of the ice and substrate, the rate of downward advection of cold ice and, to a lesser extent, the thickness of the ice sheet. The growth history of the ice sheet does not significantly influence the time at which basal melting occurs. Our results show the possibility that the central parts of the continental ice sheets were cold-based for a significant part of their existence. Heating due to the geothermal heat flux cannot account for basal melting during most or all of a glacial cycle. These results may help to explain the existence of preserved land forms under the ice sheets.

The paper presents the results of ignition and thermal behavior for samples of high-energy materials (HEM) based on ammonium perchlorate (AP) and ammonium nitrate (AN), active binder and powders of Al, B, AlB2, and TiB2. A CO2 laser with a heat flux density range of 90-200 W/cm2 was used for studies of ignition. The activation energy and characteristics of ignition for the HEM samples were determined. Also, the ignition delay time and the surface temperature of the reaction layer during the heating and ignition for the HEM samples were determined. It was found that the complete replacement of micron-sized aluminum powder by amorphous boron in a HEM sample leads to a considerable decrease in the ignition delay time by a factor of 2.2-2.8 at the same heat flux density due to high chemical activity and the difference in the oxidation mechanisms of boron particles. The use of aluminum diboride in a HEM sample allows one to reduce the ignition delay time of a HEM sample by a factor of 1.7-2.2. The quasi-stationary ignition temperature is the same for the AlB2-based and AlB12-based HEM samples.

AbstractDaily ice ablation on two outlet glaciers from the Greenland ice sheet, Nordbogletscher (1979–83) and Qamanârssûp sermia (1980–86), is related to air temperature by a linear regression equation. Analysis of this ablation-temperature equation with the help of a simple energy-balance model shows that sensible-heat flux has the greatest temperature response and accounts for about one-half of the temperature response of ablation. Net radiation accounts for about one-quarter of the temperature response of ablation, and latent-heat flux and errors account for the remainder. The temperature response of sensible-heat flux at QQamanârssûp sermia is greater than at Nordbogletscher mainly due to higher average wind speeds. The association of high winds with high temperatures during Föhn events further increases sensible-heat flux. The energy-balance model shows that ablation from a snow surface is only about half that from an ice surface at the same air temperature.

Based on the frictional mechanism of a wet clutch, frictional models of wet clutch engagement were established using the modified Reynolds equation and the elastic contact model between frictional pairs. Then, the heat flux models for the viscous shear and asperity friction were built, and the two-dimensional transient thermal models for the separator plate, friction disk, and ATF heat convection model were deduced based on the heat transfer theory and conservation law of energy. Finally, the Runge–Kutta numerical method was used to solve the frictional and thermal models. The average temperature of the separator plate, friction disk, and ATF were calculated. The effects of operating and material parameters, such as applied pressure, initial angular velocity, friction lining permeability, surface combined roughness RMS, equivalent elastic modulus, and ATF flow, on the thermal characteristics of friction pairs and ATF during engagement, were studied. The simulation results show that the temperature characteristics of the separator plate, friction disk, and ATF depend mainly on the viscous shear and asperity friction heat flux, and that the operating and material parameters of the wet clutch also have significant impacts on the overall variation trend of the thermal characteristics of the separator plate, friction disk, and ATF.

Increasing the efficiency of steam power plants is important to reduce their CO2 emissions and can be achieved by increasing steam temperatures beyond 700 °C. Within the present study, the thermal behavior of a steam by-pass valve subject to cyclic operation with 700 °C steam is investigated experimentally and numerically. An innovative numerical approach was applied to predict the valve’s thermal behavior during cyclic operation, which is essential for fatigue life assessment of such a component. Validation of the applied numerical approach has shown good agreement with measurement results, indicating the potential of its application for the valve design process.
