<strong>The</strong> 2D <strong>heat</strong> <strong>equation</strong> Homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions Steady state solutionsLaplace’s <strong>equation</strong>In the 2D case, we see that steady states must solve∇ 2 u = u xx +u yy = 0. (7)This is Laplace’s <strong>equation</strong>.Solutions to Laplace’s <strong>equation</strong> are called harmonicfunctions.See assignment 1 for examples of harmonic functions.Daileda<strong>The</strong> 2D <strong>heat</strong> <strong>equation</strong>
