Non-Stationary Heat Conduction
The heat conduction equation
In a body at rest with constant mass density and momentum the equations of balance of mass and momentum are identically satisfied, if we neglect thermal expansion, and the energy balance (1.48) – without radiation – is reduced to the form
\( \rho{{\partial{u}}\over{\partial{t}}}+{{\partial{q_i}}\over{\partial{x_i}}}=0. \) (7.1)
