Heat Transfer Interations with while loops

15 views (last 30 days)
I've been working on this code for the past couple days. I'm tyring to get the interations to run and get a time for how long it will take for T(1,p) to get to 200 degrees. Everytime I run the code to that, it runs for more than 10 minutes.
%%
%Steady Temperature at each node
clc
clear
L=.25; h=4000; Tinf=40; den=7850;
Cp=650;k=27.3; dx=5E-3;
diff=k/(den*Cp); Bi=(h*dx)/k;
Fo=(1/2)/(1+Bi);
dt_i=(Fo*dx^2)/diff;dt=1.3;
Ti=1200;
Ts=Tinf;
T_goal=200;
for i=1:51
x=(i-1)*dx;
T(i,1)=Ti;
end
nodes=1:51;
table=[nodes; T'];
fprintf('Node Initial Temperature\n')
fprintf(' %i %5.3f\n',table);
%%
p=1;
while T_goal<T(1,p)
p=p+1;
t=dt*(p-1);
for i=1:51
%for Cp
if 900<=T(i,p-1)
Cp=650;
elseif 745<=T(i,p-1)
Cp=545+(17820/(T(i,p-1)-731));
elseif 600<=T(i,p-1)
Cp=666+(13002/(738-T(i,p-1)));
else 20<=T(i,p-1)
Cp=(425+7.73*10^-1*T(i,p-1))-(1.69*(10^-3)*(T(i,p-1)^2))+(2.22*(10^-6)*(T(i,p-1)^3));
end
%For k
if 800<=T(i,p-1)
k=27.3;
else T(i,p-1)
k=54-3.33*(10^-2)*T(i,p-1);
end
diff=k/(den*Cp);
Bi=h*L/k;
Fo=(diff*dt)/L^2;
if i==1
T(i,p)= Fo*(2*T(i+1,p-1))+(1-2*Fo)*T(i,p-1);
elseif i==51
T(i,p)=2*Fo*(T(i-1,p-1)+Bi*Tinf)+(1-2*Fo-2*Bi*Fo)*T(i,p-1);
else
T(i,p)=Fo*(T(i-1,p-1)+T(i+1,p-1))+(1-2*Fo)*T(i,p-1);
end
end
end
T_i=T';
