Heat Equation for fast source with FiPy
I'm trying to solve the following differential equation with FiPy, basically laser irradiation on a surface
$$
\rho_{s}C_{p,s}\frac{\partial T}{\partial t} = k_{s}\frac{\partial^{2}T}{\partial x^{2}} +...

How can I apply a mixed boundary condition to a multi-material heat transfer problem using Crank-Nicolson?
I am working on a mixed material model for a melting material and need to enforce both a Dirichlet and Neumann type condition at the interface. Subject to an external surface heat flux at the top of ...

Accuracy of the Crank-Nicolson method for non-linear, inhomogeneous heat equation
I am currently coding a solution to the following PDE:
$\frac{\partial T }{\partial t} =\frac{\partial}{\partial \theta}(A(\theta ,\phi )\frac{\partial T }{\partial \theta}) +\frac{\partial }{\partial ...

Methods and tools to solve the two-temperature model (TTM)
I would like to model heat diffusion at the gold / water interface after excitation of the metal surface by an ultrafast laser pulse (ca. 80 fs).
An appropriate model to start with would be the "two ...

BTCS-like method for heat conduction in unstructured triangular grid
I want to write a simple simulation for heat conduction in a unstructured triangular mesh.
I already made it work for a structured rectangular grid with the ADI method, but now I need more complex ...

Heat equation with Neumann and Dirichlet conditions on same boundary
I am looking at numerical solutions to the heat equation with Dirichlet and Neumann conditions on the same boundary. That is $u(x,t)$ satisfying
$$
u_t = u_{xx}\,, \quad x \in[0,1]\,, \quad t>0\,,...
