Heat flow anomaly associated with dike intrusion. II

An investigation reported by Horai (1974) is continued. A special case of the steady state temperature field associated with dike intrusion is studied, taking into account an infinite vertical downward extension of the isotherm of rectangular shape approximating the dike. The considered case represents a problem of two-dimensional steady state thermal conduction. The technique of conformal mapping used is identical to the method employed by Horai (1974). The characteristics of surface heat flow associated with an infinitesimal thin dike of certain temperature with the considered extension are shown in a graph.
