Summary

A SINGLE-EQUATION SOLUTION ISPRESENTED FOR SOLVING TEMPERATURE AND HEAT FLUX IN MANY FINITE ONE-DIMENSIONAL BODIES WITH FIN EFFECT. WHEN THE FIN EFFECT IS SET EQUAL TO ZERO, IT YIELDS THE TEMPERATURE AND HEAT FLUX IN FINITE ONE-DIMENSIONAL BODIES. THE BODIES CAN BE SINGLE LAYER OR MULTILAYER. THE SINGLE-EQUATION SOLUTION IS FOR TRANSIENT CONDUCTION BUT YIELDS THE STEADY-STATE SOLUTION AT LARGE TIMES. A RECENTLY DEVELOPED ALTERNATIVE GREEN'S FUNCTION SOLUTION METHOD IS USED. THE GREEN'S FUNCTION IS CALCULATED USING THE GALERKIN-BASED INTEGRAL METHOD. THE EXAMPLES IN THE PAPER ARE FOR ONE-AND TWO-LAYER BODIES.
