Description

This repository contains codes related to the publication “Leveraging quantum computing for heat conduction analysis: A case study in thermal engineering”. This document explores the potential of quantum computing for solving linear systems of interest in engineering. In particular, we focus on heat conduction as a paradigmatic example in thermal science.
