An infinite or semi-infinite medium, in which heat is generated or absorbed at a rate proportional to the temperature, is placed at temperature zero in contact with a perfect conductor of finite heat capacity at a higher temperature. Expressions are derived for the subsequent behaviour in linear and spherical cases, and applications suggested.
