Fourier’s Heat Conduction Equation: History, Influence, and Connections
The equation describing the conduction of heat in solids has, over the past two centuries, proved to be a powerful tool for analyzing the dynamic motion of heat as well as for solving an enormous array of diffusion-type problems in physical sciences, biological sciences, earth sciences, and social sciences. This equation was formulated at the beginning of the nineteenth century by one of the mo...
متن کاملSplitting schemes for hyperbolic heat conduction equation
Rapid processes of heat transfer are not described by the standard heat conduction equation. To take into account a finite velocity of heat transfer, we use the hyperbolic model of heat conduction, which is connected with the relaxation of heat fluxes. In this case, the mathematical model is based on a hyperbolic equation of second order or a system of equations for the temperature and heat flu...
متن کاملThe Heat Equation and Stein ’ S Identity : Connections
This article presents two expectation identities and a series of applications. One of the identities uses the heat equation, and we show that in some families of distributions the identity characterizes the normal distribution. We also show that it is essentially equivalent to Stein's identity. The applications we have presented are of a broad range. They include exact formulas and bounds for m...
متن کاملFourier's law of heat conduction: quantum mechanical master equation analysis.
We derive the macroscopic Fourier's Law of heat conduction from the exact gain-loss time convolutionless quantum master equation under three assumptions for the interaction kernel. To second order in the interaction, we show that the first two assumptions are natural results of the long time limit. The third assumption can be satisfied by a family of interactions consisting of an exchange effec...
متن کاملStability of Charlie’s Method on Linear Heat Conduction Equation
Explicit schemes are attractive for obtaining finite difference solutions to partial differential equations because of their simplicity. However this feature is undermined by the severe restriction on stability that the schemes suffer. One method that appears to have better stability properties is Charlie’s method. The stability region of this method applied to a one-dimensional heat conduction...
