Different diameters of cylindrical tungsten rods (acting as positive
terminals) were connected to a prototype heat shield (50mm diameter).
The Ansys simulation is ‘Steady-State Electric Conduction’ coupled with
‘Transient Thermal’ in duration of 30 seconds with a current rating of
100A shown in Fig.3.2. The target is to replicate temperature
distribution at 180\(^0\) angle of attack.
