The time fractional heat conduction in an infinite plate of finite thickness, when both faces are subjected to boundary conditions of second kind, has been studied. The time fractional heat conduction equation is used, when attempting to describe transport process with long memory, where the rate of heat conduction is inconsistent with the classical Brownian motion. The stability and convergence of this numerical scheme has been discussed and observed that the solution is unconditionally stable. The whole analysis is presented in dimensionless form. A numerical example of particular interest has been studied and discussed in details.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
