contents This work investigates the two-dimensional thermal behavior of a bilayer medium subject to both internal and external heat sources. The model incorporates diffusion, advection, and temperature-dependent volumetric heat generation or absorption in each layer, as well as general convective conditions on the external boundaries. The influence of interfacial thermal resistance between the two materials is also considered. An analytical solution is developed using Fourier-based techniques, and a stable and convergent finite difference method is proposed to analyze particular scenarios. The theoretical results are validated against known solutions and numerical simulations, demonstrating consistency with the expected physical behavior. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of heat transfer phenomena in layered systems and offer potential insights for optimizing thermal performance in engineering applications involving composite materials.
