Radial maximum thermal network based on hollow cylinder structure geometry

This paper proposed a novel radial maximum temperature thermal network based on hollow cylinder geometry. By local linear fitting method, the nolinear term in the radial maximum-termperature expression of the hollow cylinder was linearized, therefore, the maximum-temperature expression could be described by the thermal network method. A dynamic compensation unit was used in the thermal network in order to eliminate the error introduced by the local linear fitting. Example analysis proved the accuracy and practicality of this novel thermal network.
