Extract

The problem of conduction of heat in a solid whose surface is in contact with fluid, which is so well stirred that its temperature is constant throughout its mass, often arises in practice, for example in calorimetry, or in the warming of a closed room. Despite their importance, problems of this type have not been much studied since the presence of the mass of fluid at the surface gives rise to a boundary condition for which the classical methods of solution do not apply without modification; the Laplace transformation method, however, has the advantage that it can be applied in the same way to all cases.
