Solution structure of hyperbolic heat-conduction equation
The contributions of the initial temperature distribution phi and source disturbance f to the temperature field T in the hyperbolic heat conduction are related to that of the initial rate of temperature change psi. This uncovers the structure of the temperature field and significantly simplifies the development of solutions of hyperbolic heat-conduction equations.
