Abstract

In this paper, we study the steady-state distribution of heat on long pipes in \({\mathbb {R}}^3\) heated along some regions of their surfaces. In particular, we prove that, if the pipe \(P=\{(x,y,z):\,x^2+y^2<1\}\) is heated along its surface belt \(B(a)=\{(x,y,z):\,x^2+y^2=1,-a<z<a\}\), \(a>0\), then the temperature in its cross-sections \(D_c=\{(x,y,z)\in P:\, z=c\}\) is increasing in the radial direction for all c in the interval \([-a, a]\).
