Abstract

Temperature distribution through asphalt and the underlying layer have been obtained numerically using finite element method where a varying induced heat from sun and environment cause fluctuating temperature distribution throughout .The maximum effect of these parameters on the temperature of the asphalt is expected in summer, so the temperature distribution was studied in the summer only. Some interesting results were found ; at tropical zone such as in Baghdad the asphalt surface temperature may reach (70 C ) and it is reduced with depth .Due to fluctuating environment heat effect, the subsequent temperature of the asphalt and the underlying layer may fluctuating with some delay and damping depending on the layers thermal properties , these result may be used later to predict both the erosion rate of car tiers and asphalt thickness, also the preserved energy using asphalt layer may be used to confined heat for further usage as in electrical generation.
