Title: Numerical inversion of a Laplace transform using a Fourier series to compute nonstationary temperature fields in layered structures

Journal Article · · Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics
OSTI ID:136138

An algorithm is examined for the selection and assignment of the parameter {sigma} of a numerical inversion of a Laplace transform with the use of Fourier series. In the field of structural thermal physics, significant attention is allotted to questions of heat- and mass-transport in layered structures. This interest in multilayered systems is explained by the fact that they permit one to more rationally exploit the thermophysical and physical-mechanical properties of building materials. 7 refs. 1 fig.
