... approximate technique namely sector method has been used to solve the same problem. The sector method does not require any numerical technique yet yields remarkable accuracy. Next, the heat flow through an eccentric insulation surrounding a circular cylinder was considered. It has been demonstrated...

... periphery. A one-dimensional approximate technique called sector method shows a closed agreement with the two-dimensional analysis. The present work gives an improvement on the analysis of Li et al. (2004, “Heat Transfer Enhancement Using Shaped Polymer Tubes: Fin Analysis,” ASME J. Heat Transfer, 126, pp...
