Abstract:
In the case when the coefficient of thermal conductivity (diffusion) $g$ depends on the temperature (concentration) $c$, according to the law $g(c)=Ac^n$ (here $A - const, 1<n<\infty$) , an upper estimate is obtained for the solution of the corresponding nonlinear parabolic equation describing the process of heat (substance) propagation. It turns out to be such that at each moment of time there is a region in which the exact solution of the equation is identically equal to zero, i.e., heat (substance) propagates with a finite speed.
