Chapter 1. Heat Equation
Section 1.2
1.2.9 (d) Circular cross section means that P = 2πr, A = πr2 , and thus P/A = 2/r, where r is the radius.
Also γ = 0.
1.2.9 (e) u(x, t) = u(t) implies that
du 2h
cρ =− u.
dt r
The solution of this first-order linear differential equation with constant coefficients, which satisfies the
initial condition u(0) = u0 , is · ¸
2h
u(t) = u0 exp − t .
cρr

Section 1.3
1.3.2 ∂u/∂x is continuous if K0 (x0 −) = K0 (x0 +), that is, if the conductivity is continuous.

Section 1.4
1.4.1 (a) Equilibrium satisfies (1.4.14), d2 u/dx2 = 0, whose general solution is (1.4.17), u = c1 + c2 x. The
boundary condition u(0) = 0 implies c1 = 0 and u(L) = T implies c2 = T /L so that u = T x/L.
1.4.1 (d) Equilibrium satisfies (1.4.14), d2 u/dx2 = 0, whose general solution (1.4.17), u = c1 + c2 x. From
the boundary conditions, u(0) = T yields T = c1 and du/dx(L) = α yields α = c2 . Thus u = T + αx.

1.4.1 (f) In equilibrium, (1.2.9) becomes d2 u/dx2 = −Q/K0 = −x2 , whose general solution (by integrating
twice) is u = −x4 /12 + c1 + c2 x. The boundary condition u(0) = T yields c1 = T , while du/dx(L) = 0
yields c2 = L3 /3. Thus u = −x4 /12 + L3 x/3 + T .
1.4.1 (h) Equilibrium satisfies d2 u/dx2 = 0. One integration yields du/dx = c2 , the second integration
yields the general solution u = c1 + c2 x.
x=0: c2 − (c1 − T ) = 0
x=L: c2 = α and thus c1 = T + α.
Therefore, u = (T + α) + αx = T + α(x + 1).
1.4.7 (a) For equilibrium:
d2 u x2 du

= −1 implies u = − + c1 x + c2 and = −x + c1 .
dx 2 dx
From the boundary conditions du du
dx (0) = 1 and dx (L) = β, c1 = 1 and −L + c1 = β which is consistent
2
only if β + L = 1. If β = 1 − L, there is an equilibrium solution (u = − x2 + x + c2 ). If β 6= 1 − L,
there isn’t an equilibrium solution. The difficulty is caused by the heat flow being specified at both
ends and a source specified inside. An equilibrium will exist only if these three are in balance. This
balance can be mathematically verified from conservation of energy:
Z Z L
d L du du
cρu dx = − (0) + (L) + Q0 dx = −1 + β + L.
dt 0 dx dx 0

If β + L = 1, then the total thermal energy is constant and the initial energy = the final energy:
Z L Z Lµ 2 ¶
x
f (x) dx = − + x + c2 dx, which determines c2 .
0 0 2

If β + L 6= 1, then the total thermal energy is always changing in time and an equilibrium is never
reached.

1.5.9 (a) In equilibrium, (1.5.14) using (1.5.19) becomes dr r dr = 0. Integrating once yields rdu/dr = c1
and integrating a second time (after dividing by r) yields u = c1 ln r + c2 . An alternate general solution
is u = c1 ln(r/r1 ) + c3 . The boundary condition u(r1 ) = T1 yields c3 = T1 , while u(r2 ) = T2 yields
c1 = (T2 − T1 )/ ln(r2 /r1 ). Thus, u = ln(r21/r1 ) [(T2 − T1 ) ln r/r1 + T1 ln(r2 /r1 )].

1.5.11 For equilibrium, the radial flow at r = a, 2πaβ, must equal the radial flow at r = b, 2πb. Thus β = b/a.

1.5.13 From exercise 1.5.12, in equilibrium dr r dr = 0. Integrating once yields r2 du/dr = c1 and integrat-

ing a second time (after dividing by r ) yields u = −c1 /r + c2 . The boundary conditions ¡ u(4) ¢ = 80
and u(1) = 0 yields 80 = −c1 /4 + c2 and 0 = −c1 + c2 . Thus c1 = c2 = 320/3 or u = 320 3 1 − 1r .

φ dx2 = −λ.

2.3.2 (b) λ = (nπ/L)2 with L = 1 so that λ = n2 π 2 , n = 1, 2, . . .

2.3.2 (d)

(i) If λ > 0, φ = c1 cos λx + c2 sin λx. φ(0) = 0 implies c1 = 0, while dx (L) = 0 implies
√ √ √
c2 λ cos λL = 0. Thus λL = −π/2 + nπ(n = 1, 2, . . .).
(ii) If λ = 0, φ = c1 + c2 x. φ(0) = 0 implies c1 = 0 and dφ/dx(L) = 0 implies c2 = 0. Therefore λ = 0
is not an eigenvalue.

(iii) If λ < 0, let
√ λ = −s√ and φ = c1 cosh sx + c2 sinh sx. φ(0) = 0 implies c1 = 0 and dφ/dx(L) = 0
implies c2 s cosh sL = 0. Thus c2 = 0 and hence there are no eigenvalues with λ < 0.

2.3.2 (f) The simpliest method is to let x0 = x − a. Then d2 φ/dx02 + λφ = 0 with φ(0) = 0 and φ(b − a) = 0.

If − k < L , then u → 0 as t → ∞. However, if − k > L , u → ∞ (if b1 6= 0). Note that b1 > 0 if

solutions are unstable.]

2.4.3 Let x0 = x − π. Then the boundary value problem becomes d2 φ/dx02 = −λφ subject to φ(−π) = φ(π)
and dφ/dx0 (−π) = dφ/dx0 (π). Thus, the eigenvalues are λ = (nπ/L)2 = n2 π 2 , since L = π, n =
0, 1, 2, ... with the corresponding eigenfunctions being both sin nπx0 /L = sin n(x−π) = (−1)n sin nx =>
sin nx and cos nπx0 /L = cos n(x − π) = (−1)n cos nx => cos nx.

Section 2.5

2.5.1 (a) Separation of variables, u(x, y) = h(x)φ(y), implies that h1 ddxh2 = − φ1 ddyφ2 = −λ. Thus d2 h/dx2 =
−λh subject to h0 (0) = 0 and h0 (L) = 0. Thus as before, λ = (nπ/L)2 , n = 0, l, 2, . . . with h(x) =

cos nπx/L. Furthermore, ddyφ2 = λφ = nπ L φ so that
n = 0 : φ = c1 + c2 y, where φ(0) = 0 yields c1 = 0
n 6= 0 : φ = c1 cosh nπy nπy
L + c2 sinh L , where φ(0) = 0 yields c1 = 0.
