Abstract The boundary element method (BEM) is useful in solving the steady heat conduction problem of orthotropic bodies without heat generation. However, for cases with arbitrary heat generation, a number of internal cells are necessary. In this paper, it is shown that the problem of steady heat conduction in orthotropic bodies with heat generation can be solved without internal cells by the triple-reciprocity BEM. In this method, the distribution of heat generation is interpolated using integral equations. In order to solve the problem, the values of heat generation at internal points and on the boundary are used. Furthermore, a new interpolation… More >
