CHAPTER 8

APPROXIMATE SOLUTIONS

THE INTEGRAL METHOD

• Obtain approximate solutions when

(a) Exact solution is not available

(b) Form of the exact solution is not convenient to use

• Integral method is used in

(a) fluid flow

(b) heat transfer

(c) mass transfer

2

8.1 Integral Method Applications: Mathematical Simplification

• Differential formulation: Basic laws are satisfied at every point

• Integral formulation: Basic laws are satisfied in an average sense

• Mathematical simplification:

(a) Reduction of the number of independent variables and/or

(b) Reduction of the order of the governing differential equation

3

8.2 Procedure

(1) Integral formulation: Construct the heat-balance integral using one of two methods:

(a) Control volume formulation

• Select a finite control volume

• Apply conservation of energy

(b) Integration of the governing differential equation

• Write the heat equation

• Multiply through by an infinitesimal area dA of the control volume

4

• Integrate each term over the entire control volume

• Make use of Leibnitz’s rule to integrate the term

(8.1)

Each problem has its ownheat-balance integral

5

(2) Assumed temperature profile

• Not unique. Various possibilities: Example: polynomial for Cartesian coordinates

• Must satisfy boundary conditions

• Profile is expressed in terms of unknown parameter or variable

(3) Determination of the unknown parameter or variable

• Use the heat balance integral for the problem

6

8.3 Accuracy of the Integral Method

• Errors are acceptable

• Different assumed profile give different solutions and different errors

• Accuracy is not very sensitive to the form of the assumed profile

• Not possible to identify the most accurate integral solution

7

8.4 Application to Cartesian Systems

• Formulation of the heat-balance integral for each problem by two methods:

(a) Control volume formulation

(b) Integration of the governing differential equation

Example 8.1: Constant Area Fin

(2) Origin and Coordinates

(3) Formulation and Solution

(i) Assumptions • Steady state • Fin approximations are valid (Bi 0.1)

(1) Observations

• No energy generation (4) Uniform h and T

Limiting check: If h = 0 no heat leaves the fin. Fin should be at the base temperature. Setting h = m = 0 in

eqs. (8.3) and (8.5) gives T (x) = To and qf = 0(5) Comments. Exact solution:

• The error increases with increasing mL large mL = large L (long fin)

Dimensional check: Equations (h) and (m) are dimensionally consistent.

Limiting check: If ,0q the temperature remains at the initial value. Setting 0)( tq in (g) gives Q = 0.

When this is substituted into (h) gives T (x,t) = 0
