Conservation laws and associated Lie point symmetries admitted by the transient heat conduction problem for heat transfer in straight fins

Abstract

Abstract:Some new conservation laws for the transient heat conduction problem for heat transfer in a straight fin are constructed. The thermal conductivity is given by a power law in one case and by a linear function of temperature in the other. Conservation laws are derived using the direct method when thermal conductivity is given by the power law and the multiplier method when thermal conductivity is given as a linear function of temperature. The heat transfer coefficient is assumed to be given by the power law function of temperature. Furthermore, we determine the Lie point symmetries associated with the conserved vectors for the model with power law thermal conductivity.PACS (

“…[40][41][42][43] In a great number of papers, the authors have used the classical symmetry method and the conservation law multiplier method to study PDEs. [44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51]…”

Conservation laws, classical symmetries and exact solutions of the generalized KdV-Burgers-Kuramoto equation

“…As example, Ndlovu and Moitsheki studied the Lie point symmetries admitted by the transient heat conduction problem [16], Gandarias and Khalique worked with symmetries in a generalization of the damped externally excited KdV equation [17], De la Rosa and Bruzón obtained classical and nonclassical symmetries of a generalized Gardner equation [18], Garrido and Bruzón made an analysis of the Generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov System [19], and so on.…”

Residual symmetries of the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation and its localization

“…[17]. Besides the Painlevé analysis method, the symmetry study is also considered as one of the most effective and systematic methods to solve partial differential equations [2,3,[18][19][20][21]. Based on the symmetry structure of the mKdV equation, the exact solvability of mKdV equation is researched in Ref.…”
