Abstract
Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) have been developed as the material which can stand at high temperatures. FGM is a nonhomogeneous material and an information about distribution of thermophysical properties is demanded to evaluate its heat resistance. So we develop a new method to measure thermophysical properties using stepwise induction heating. The method uses an approximate solution by the Finite Element Method (FEM) for the data reduction on the assumption that FGM is a multiplayer material composed of various substances differing in property. A double layer materials is regarded as a multiplayer materials in fundamentals. This report describes analyses of heat conduction to verify an effect of thermophysical properties on a temperature profile at surface.
