This paper reviews several aspects of thermal and mechanical properties of
cookware appliance. Numerical results of temperature distribution (TD), heat retaining,
thermal stress and body deformation are summarized. Finite Element Method, ANSYS
program, is employed. We described different thermal and mechanical results of Al/Cr-Ni,
Al/SSt, Al/Ti, Cu/Cr-Ni, Cu/SSt, Cu/Ti, gray cast iron (GCI), carbon steel (CSt), iron. The
laminated plate provides improved thermal and chemical properties in comparison with
single layer. From this analysis the result suggests that Cu/SSt bi-metal structure provides the
best application as cookware.
Keywords: body deformation; heat retaining; laminated structure; thermal stress; temperature distribution |
