A model for studying transient thermal processes in a heated object

This work is aimed at developing and justifying a simplified method for determining the temperature distribution on the surface of a heated object. To this end, the author proposes an electrical equivalent circuit for the heated object, consisting of capacitors interconnected by resistances. The capacitors in this model are equivalent to the heat capacity of the sections of the heated object, while the resistances correspond to the thermal resistances. Subsequently, the proposed circuit was simulated in a circuit simulation environment.
