SOLUTIONS OF THE HEAT IN FINITE REGIONS
EQUATION
M. D. MIKHAILOV Institute for Mechanical and Electrotechnical Engineering, Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract- Using a finite integral transform an analytical solution is found for a large class of heat transfer problems. This solu$on is obtained in form of infinite series and contains quasi-steady and transient terms. It is shown that the Olcer’s conductive heat transfer solution[2,3] is a special case of the general solution obtained. The latter can also be applied when studying heat transfer in laminar and turbulent flows of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids in pipes and ducts, temperature development in the entrance region of MHD channels and elsewhere. 1. INTRODUCTION
the famous fundamental Fourier’s work [ 11, an immense number of papers and books appeared on the analytical heat transfer theory. Digital computers made these complicated solutions accessible for technological applications. The information flow in this field is growing lately more and more. It is sometimes easier to solve and tabulate a problem as a new one rather than to find out whether its solution is published. Therefore it seems quite useful to find a general solution, which could easily permit to obtain numerous special cases with practical application. In [2,3] Olcer presented such general solutions of the unsteady heat conduction in a finite homogeneous region of arbitrary geometry and initial conditions with general boundary conditions, including the boundary conditions of the first, second and third kind (prescribed surface temperature, prescribed heat flux and Newtonian convections) or any combination of these three. This solution was reported again in[4] and used by Olcer to solve a number of particular problems [5,6,7]. Recently the analytical heat transfer theory is concentrating on more complicated, compared with conductive heat transfer cases, problems, namely: heat transfer in laminar and turbulent flows of Newtonian or non-Newtonian fluids in pipes, ducts; heat transfer by Hartmenn’s flow in thermal entrance region etc. In [8] and [9] the author presented a one-dimensional and three-dimensional solution of a broad class of heat transfer problems, including the above-mentioned as special cases. The present paper is a further development of these results in a form, which contains in itself as a special case the results obtained by &er. FOLLOWING

In the case where the time dependent source functions f(N, 7) and P(M, 7) are given by their Taylor series expansion in time or by exponential lotions, the solutions should be booed into sums of quasi steady and transient terms readily applicable for the purpose of nail evaluations.

7. CONCLUSIONS
The problem treated by &er[2,3] becomes a special case of the general problem studied here. To obtain the Olcer’s solutions it is sufficient to let: cp(7) = 1, w(M) = 1, k(M) = 1, P(T) = 0, p(M) = 0, M = P, T = kt, P(M, T) = [Q(P, t)/k]. It is evident, that by use of the results obtained here, more complicated, compared with conductive heat transfer cases, problems can be resolved. It may be mentioned, in this connection, that the one-dimensional problem treated in [ 15- 191 are very special cases of the solutions (66) or (67).
