Improvement of Finite Element Meshes

Abstract

In the mechanical systems there are numerous applications of heat transfer and temperature plays a very important role. If values of temperatures at node are not accurate it is not possible to get accurate results for heat transfer analysis. Now, Finite Element Method which has increasingly becoming an integral tool for CAD due to the ongoing revolution in computer field is used for the analysis of heat transfer by number of researchers. Finite Element Mesh refinement has an effect on the accuracy of the solution. The present work describes the effect of mesh refinement with regard to heat transfer.
