General self-similar solutions of diffusion equation and related constructions

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

Transport phenomena plays an important role in science and technology. In the wide variety of applications both advection and diffusion may appear. Regarding diffusion, for long times, different type of decay rates are possible for different non-equilibrium systems. After summarizing the existing solutions of the regular diffusion equation, we present not so well known solution derived from three different trial functions, as a key point we present a family of solutions for the case of infinite horizon. By this we tried to make a step toward understanding the different long time decays for different diffusive systems.
