ABSTRACT
In this chapter we will develop a general equation that describes temperature in a material in any kind of heating or cooling situation. Later, in Chapters 4 through 8, we
• governing equation• boundary temperature specified
• control volume• boundary heat flux specified
• storage term
• convection term• boundary convective heat transfer
• diffusion term
• generation term• bioheat transfer
