Temperature field near the singular line of the interface of anisotropic media

A representation of the temperature fields and the components of the vector of heat-flux density in both the base material (matrix) and the conjugate medium (inclusion) has been found for anisotropic media in the case of the interface with a singular line on condition of ideal thermal contact. It has been shown that the anisotropy of thermal properties makes it possible to do away with the singularity of the components of the heatflux-density vector. Particular cases of isotropy of the media and of heat-insulated and isothermal inclusions have been investigated. The results obtained are applicable for studying the nonstationary heat conduction of an anisotropic body with an uneven anisotropic inclusion.
