An immersed-boundary method is proposed for the analysis of conjugate problems of convective heat transfer in conducting solids. Inside the solid body, momentum forcing is applied to set the velocity to zero. A thermal conductivity ratio and a heat capacity ratio, between the solid body and the fluid, are introduced so that the energy equation is reduced to the heat diffusion equation. At the solid...
