Popis: The nonstationary conjugate radiation-convective heat transfer of a single silicon rod heated by an electric current with the surrounding gas medium is studied numerically in the axisymmetric formulation by the finite element method. The calculations were carried out at the Prandtl number Pr = 0.68, and the range of the Grashof number, determined by the temperature difference and the radius of the rod 9 703 ≤ Gr ≤ 261 977. It is shown that after a short incubation period, a circulation flow is formed. As a result, a significantly inhomogeneous temperature field in the longitudinal direction is formed in a silicon rod heated by an electric current. As the Grashof number increases, the inhomogeneity of the longitudinal distribution of the temperature field increases.
