Abstract
In this article, a combined approach of the radial integration boundary element method (RIBEM) and the precise integration method is presented for solving transient heat conduction problems with variable thermal conductivity. First, the system of ordinary differential equations on the boundary integral equation can be obtained by the RIBEM. Then, the precise integration method is adopted to solve the system of ordinary differential equations. Finally, three numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the performance of the present method. The results show that the present approach can obtain satisfactory performance even for very large time-step size.
