Here, the principles behind a new computer code for calculating numerical structure and evolution models of planets are presented, and with this program the thermal evolution of U&N is investigated using up-to-date equation of state data. Particularly, it is shown that the assumption of a thermal boundary layer in the planet's envelope, trapping part of its heat in the deep interior, impacts the planet's cooling drastically and thus allows for an explanation of U&N's heat fluxes within the same framework. %L 530 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %R 10.18453/rosdok_id00003533 %U http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00003533 %U https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00003533-9 %U https://d-nb.info/1293536997/34 %U https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00003533
