The problem of heat transfer in the presence of liquid flowing around the body was first formulated and solved as a coupled problem by Theodore L. Perelman in 1961, [1] who also coined the term conjugate problem of heat transfer. Later T. L. Perelman, in collaboration with A.V. Luikov, [2] developed this approach further.
Each aforementioned geometry can be analyzed by three charts which show the midplane temperature, temperature distribution, and heat transfer. [1] Although Heisler–Gröber charts are a faster and simpler alternative to the exact solutions of these problems, there are some limitations. First, the body must be at uniform temperature initially.
As an example, number X11 denotes the Green's function that satisfies the heat equation in the domain (0 < x < L) for boundary conditions of type 1 at both boundaries x = 0 and x = L. Here X denotes the Cartesian coordinate and 11 denotes the type 1 boundary condition at both sides of the body.
A fundamental solution, also called a heat kernel, is a solution of the heat equation corresponding to the initial condition of an initial point source of heat at a known position. These can be used to find a general solution of the heat equation over certain domains; see, for instance, for an introductory treatment.
The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its ability to conduct heat.It is commonly denoted by , , or and is measured in W·m −1 ·K −1.. Heat transfer occurs at a lower rate in materials of low thermal conductivity than in materials of high thermal conductivity.

It quantifies how effectively a material can resist the transfer of heat through conduction, convection, and radiation. It has the units square metre kelvins per watt (m 2 ⋅K/W) in SI units or square foot degree Fahrenheit–hours per British thermal unit (ft 2 ⋅°F⋅h/Btu) in imperial units. The higher the thermal insulance, the better a ...
This article describes how to use a computer to calculate an approximate numerical solution of the discretized equation, in a time-dependent situation. In order to be concrete, this article focuses on heat flow, an important example where the convection–diffusion equation applies. However, the same mathematical analysis works equally well to ...
