Abstract

"The desired result of this paper is a method of determining temperature distribution and burn off rate in a semi-infinite rod or shield subjected to a large heat flux. The possible methods of determination were investigated, and it was felt that an analytical approach turned out to be the most feasible.

The analytical analysis employed involves the use of the Fourier's general equation for one dimensional heat flow. Transformations from stationary to moving coordinates reduces the problem from unsteady state to steady state boundary conditions. The resulting equations can be applicable to the extent for the heat flow problems involving the change of phase"--Abstract, page 2.
