Abstract

In this paper, a newly proposed algorithm for the numerical solutions of a 3-dimensional heat equation was presented. The formulated algorithm was developed using homotopy perturbation method (HPM). In order to test the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, four examples are considered and the numerical solutions obtain are in good agreement with available solutions in literature and exact solutions. From the computational point of view, the numerical solutions and graphs presentation show clearly that homotopy perturbation algorithm is feasible, efficiency and easy to implement.
