This second part of our contribution entitled, “Heat Transfer in Thin Multilayered Plates,” refers to the modeling of an advanced repair technique, known as the composite patch repair (CPR). Thermal analysis of this particular application is highly complicated due to the geometry of the domains and the fact that many different materials participate in the implementation. In this paper, we take advantage of the fact that both the composite patch and the damaged plate to be repaired are of very small thickness. In that way, the whole domain may be treated as a thin multilayer area of extended surface. These properties make the thermal analysis of CPR an ideal field for using the method presented in the previous part of our analysis.
