Software application for solving of nonstationary temperature fields in a plane plate

Abstract

In this paper we present software application that we programmed for study of heat transfer problems that is a part of education of subject Process engineering taught at the Tomas Bata University in Zlín. The application we use as a teaching aid for calculation and visualization of temperature distribution in the plane plate body during its heating or cooling and for calculation of economical costs of the process and accompanying main operating costs. Calculation accuracy of our application enables it to be used for real engineering computing.
