Existence and uniqueness for the equations of the joule-thomson effect

Pages 131-144 | Received 20 Aug 1990, Published online: 02 May 2007
 

Abstract

The electrical heating of a conductor obeying the Wiedemann-Pranz law is studied taking into account the Thomson's effect. Using a suitable transformation, the nonlinear elliptic system governing the problem is put in divergence form. The new formulation permits to find a bound for the temperature, to prove a theorem of existence and, in a special case, a result of uniqueness
