Abstract
By using weighted residual method, the finite element formulation of a heat transfer problem for axisymmetric composite structures is established from the heat transfer differential equations expressed by heat fluid density. A few examples are included to indicate that the heat transfer anisotropy has an important effect on temperature field and to prove the accuracy and effectiveness of the finite element formulation.
