An enhanced version of a thermal analysis computer program called THERMOD was developed for determining the maximum operating limit (MOL) temperatures of general aviation aircraft. The project was undertaken under a Federal Aviation Administration-AGATE sponsorship. This report is the second of two reports prepared in conjunction with this project. Enhancements included program debugging and corrections as well as development of an alternate implicit finite difference method, which is used in transient analysis. Numerical validation of THERMOD was undertaken with respect to the finite element methods. Good correlation was found. The validated THERMOD can be used to determine the MOL temperatures of a typical aircraft that has a low wing configuration.
