Lie Group theory is applied to the equation. Group classification with respect to the thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient is performed. Results are summarized in a table for convenience. Some similarity transformations are used to convert the partial differential equation into an ordinary differential equation. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
