Abstract

The well-known Jaeger–Rosenthal asymptotic particular solution for the quasi-steady-state problem of moving heat source is proven to be inconsistent with the source constant intensity, especially at dimensionless trailing edge coordinates vx/a < −2. The problem is reduced to an equivalent Poisson’s equation by exponential transformation of moving coordinate scale. Using the method of images, the fundamental solution is found; the temperature rise function exponentially approximates to 0 along negative semi-axis. The temperature field in a semi-infinite solid for the general case of surface power intensity distribution is expressed, using the found Green’s function. The cases of point, line, and circular heat sources are considered. The found fundamental solution and particular solution for moving circular heat source explain the phenomena of martensite transformation in low-carbon steel substrate at relatively low source velocity 1.7 cm/s.
