Abstract
The temperature and heat flux solutions of several heat conduction pro blems in a semi-infinite solid with a boundary condition of the third kind can be expressed in terms of the functions, E(u, v) and F(u, v). It is shown that these functions can be expressed by exponential and c omplementary error functions. We also present the graphical as well as tabular representations of the functions for practical use.
