Question
In Problems 5–7, solve Laplace’s equation
\(\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial y^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial z^{2}}=0\)
for the steady-state temperature u(x, y, z) in the rectangular parallelepiped shown in FIGURE 13.8.2.
The parallelepiped is a unit cube (a = b = c = 1) with the top (z = 1) and bottom (z = 0) kept at constant temperatures \(u_{0}\) and \(-u_{0}\), respectively, and the remaining sides kept at temperature zero.
Solution
The first step in solving 13.8 problem number 7 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: In Problems 5–7, solve Laplace’s equation\(\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial y^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2} u}{\partial z^{2}}=0\)for the steady-state temperature u(x, y, z) in the rectangular parallelepiped shown in FIGURE 13.8.2.
