Cover Story: New analytical solutions of the heat conduction equation obtained via the self-similar Ansatz are presented in cylindrical and spherical coordinates. These solutions are reproduced with high accuracy using recent explicit and unconditionally stable finite difference methods. After this, real experimental data from the literature regarding a heated cylinder are reproduced using explicit numerical methods as well as using the Finite Element Methods (FEM) ANSYS workbench. Convection and nonlinear radiation are also considered on the boundary of the cylinder. The results indicate that the numerical methods have a high accuracy in dealing with cylindrical and spherical bodies; also, the comparison of the temperatures showed that the explicit methods are more accurate than the commercial software. View this paper
