Using the variable transformation method,the formulae of the axial symmetrical wall temperature distribution during steady heat conduction of a hollow cylinder are derived in this paper.The wall temperature distribution and the wall heat flux distribution in both axial and radial direction can be calculated by the temperature distribution of the liquid medium both inside and outside the cylinder with temperature changing in axial direction.The calculation results are almost consistent with the experience results.The applicative condition of the formulae in this paper consists with most of practice.They can be applied to the engineering calculation of the steady heat conduction.The calculation is simple and accurate.
This paper presents an approximate algorithm based on simulated annealing to achieve the maximum probability of the minimal cut sets for a fault tree. Near optimal minimal cut sets and important sequence of the basic events are also solved by the method. Computer simulations show that the algorithm performs very well.
