Abstract
The unsteady surface element method is extended to conjugated heat transfer from a strip heater where the unsteadiness is caused by a step change in the heater output flux. The geometry is a model of a flush-mounted, hot-film anemometer for air flow. The numerical results for the heater temperature agree with the analytical solution for early times and the steady-state results for the Nusselt number agree with an existing numerical solution.
