  • Describing function theory as applied to thermal and neutronic problems

    Creator:
    Nassersharif, Bahram
    Abstract:
    Describing functions have traditionally been used to obtain the solutions of systems of ordinary differential equations. In this work the describing function concept has been extended to include nonlinear, distributed parameter partial differential equations. A three-stage solution algorithm is presented which can be applied to any nonlinear partial differential equation....

  • Heat conduction in eccentric annuli

    Creator:
    Ting, Yine-ping
    Abstract:
    Muitiregion annular geometry is a basic feature of energy removal systems ranging from advanced heat exchangers to fission reactor fuel rods. For the symmetric cases, the heat conduction through annular regions is well defined. However, for a shift of an annular region, analysis of the system must be made in...
