Abstract
In this chapter, the finite element balance method (FEBM) and boundary element method (BEM) are discussed in depth. Also examples are given to demonstrate how two-dimensional steady-state temperature distributions can be determined using FEBM and BEM. The obtained results are compared with the results from FEM calculations, which were carried out by means of the ANSYS program with a highly dense finite element mesh.
