Abstract

A boundary-value problem for steady-state heat conduction in a three-dimensional, two-layered composite is studied. The method of Green's function is used in the study. Green's functions are constructed as double sums in terms of eigenfunctions in two of the three directions. The eigenfunctions in the direction orthogonal to the layers are unconventional and must be defined appropriately. The use of different forms of the Green's functions leads to different representations of the solutions as double sums with different convergence characteristics and it is shown that the method of Green's functions is superior to the classical method of separation of variables.
