Description
Summary:The present work shows an analytical and a numerical method for heat transfer nonlinear problems in porous fins using the Darcy model. Numerical simulations are carried out with the aid of a sequence of linear problems, each of them possessing an equivalent minimum principle, that has as its limit the solution of the original problem. The nonlinear convection-radiation heat transfer process is considered and simulated by means of a finite difference scheme. Results showed the relevance of the radiation for realistic thermal mapping in porous media with percentage errors of up to 40% for the last nodes.
