Description
Summary:Absatract The study of efficient solution methods for mathematical models from physics is important for the purpose of making predictions. In the study of the equations of mathematical physics, the heat equation has an important place. Techniques for studying heat transfer include topics such as Fourier analysis, Bessel functions, Legendre polynomials, etc. Throughout this article we will study the heat equation from the point of view of calculating its solutions. For this reason, the solution of the heat equation is proposed by the Fourier method and the explicit numerical method. In the last part of the article studies the accuracy of the numerical method in relation to heat transfer in a spherical polymer and raises the advantage of working with numerical methods to solve mathematical models derived from conservative laws.
