Three-Dimensional Numerical Computation for Temperature Field and Insulator of Cold Regions Tunnel

Abstract:

With heat conduction differential equation of the transient temperature field, Galerkin method is adopted to deduce the three-dimensional finite element formula; based on the test result of temperature field, the actual temperature of the environment inside the tunnel shall be exerted on surface of the second lining concrete as load, thus establish the three dimensional computation model of the temperature field of tunnel in cold region. Next, on basis of the model, numerical analysis on cross section of burial depth and longitudinal direction of tunnel in cold region with and without thermal insulating layer, so as to provide theoretical basis for thickness and longitudinal length of thermal insulating layer laid in tunnel of cold region.
