Mixed boundary value problem of heat conduction for infinite slab

Summary An axisymmetric steady state heat conduction boundary value problem having mixed boundary conditions on both faces of an infinite slab, is reduced to a pair of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. For large values of h, the slab thickness, a solution correct to O(h^–6) is obtained by expanding the kernels in power series.Presently at Imperial College, London.
