A new approach in the use of Monte Carlo to solve heat conduction problems is developed using a transport equation approximation to the heat conduction equation. A variety of problems is analyzed with this method and their solutions are compared to those obtained with analytical techniques. This Monte Carlo approach appears to be limited to the calculation of temperatures at specific points rather than temperature distributions. The method is applicable to the solution of multimedia problems with no inherent limitations as to the geometric complexity of the problem.

In this paper we discuss a new class of integral transforms and their inversion formula. The kernel in the transform is a G-function (for a treatment of this function, see ((1), 5.3) and integration is performed with respect to the argument of that function. In the inversion formula, the kernel is likewise a G-function, but there integration is performed with respect to a parameter. Known special cases of our results are the Kontorovitch-Lebedev transform pair ((2), v. 2; (3))and the generalised Mehler transform pair (7)These transforms are used in solving certain boundary value problems of the wave or heat conduction equation involving wedge or conically-shaped boundaries, and are extensively tabulated in (6).
