A COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR THE ANALYSIS OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL HEAT CONDUCTION USING THE FINITE ELEMENT TECHNIQUE

Abstract

The computer program for the solution of unsteady heat conduction problems involving plane or axisymmetric geometry, devised by Robert E, Nickell, has been modified to include temperature dependent properties and time dependent boundary conditions. The original IBM 7094 computer dependent program has been converted for use on the IBM/OS 360 Model 67 computer. In both programs FORTRAN IV language was used. A 'User's Manual' has been constructed for the modified program.
