<strong>The</strong> 2D <strong>heat</strong> <strong>equation</strong> Homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions Steady state solutionsInitial conditionsWe must determine the values of the coefficients A mn so that oursolution also satisfies the initial condition (3). We needf(x,y) = u(x,y,0) =∞∑∞∑n=1 m=1A mn sin mπa x sin nπ b ywhich is just the double Fourier series for f(x,y). We know thatif f is a C 2 function thenA mn = 4ab∫ a ∫ b00f(x,y)sin mπa x sin nπ bdy dx.Daileda<strong>The</strong> 2D <strong>heat</strong> <strong>equation</strong>
