Modelling of the solar heating of a multi-layered spherical cone
Urszula Siedlecka
Abstract:In this paper, the solar heating of a multi-layered spherical body with azimuthal symmetry is considered. The mathematical model is related to the determination of the steady state of the temperature distribution in the spherical cone consisting of concentric spherical layers. The solar heating is composed of two parts of the heat flux: direct and diffusion. Also, the simultaneous cooling of the cone by its outer surface (as convective heat flow to the environment) is taken into account. The proposed system of… Show more
