摘要
The heat equation is re-studied in this Letter in view of variational theory. By the semi-inverse method, a variational principle for the heat conduction is obtained, which is first appeared in the literature. The physical understanding of the obtained variational principle still needs further explanation. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
