Abstract:

Based on the potential superposition theory, this paper gives analytical solutions to steady state frozen temperature of four freezing pipes arranged at random. Particular solutions are derived for some particular arrangements, such as four freezing pipes with rectangle arrangement and rhombus arrangement. Comparison of the analytical solutions with the numerical thermal analysis shows that the analytical solutions are precise enough.
