1.2. Material properties#
The material under consideration is a forged austenitic stainless steel of type 316L (Z2 CND17 -12).
For non-linear thermal modeling, thermal conductivity and the product (density, density, heat capacity \(\rho c\)) vary as a function of temperature. Their values are given in the table below:
\(T\) Temperature (\(°C\)) |
\(\lambda\) Thermal conductivity (\(W/(\mathrm{mm}°C)\)) |
\(\rho c\) (\(J/{\mathrm{mm}}^{3}°C\)) |
\(\beta\) Enthalpy (\(J/{\mathrm{mm}}^{3}\)) |

The upper surface of the plate is subjected to the action of a torch. This torch is placed in the center of the plate, \(15\mathrm{mm}\) from the edge, and moves parallel to its length at a constant speed (\(\mathrm{14cm}/\mathrm{min}\)) up to \(\mathrm{85.5mm}\) from the edge corresponding to the flashlight’s off position.
1.4. Initial conditions#
None.
