Fractional heat conduction with heat absorption in a sphere under Dirichlet boundary condition

The time-fractional heat conduction equation with the Caputo derivative and with heat absorption term proportional to temperature is considered in a sphere in the case of central symmetry. The fundamental solution to the Dirichlet boundary value problem is found, and the solution to the problem under constant boundary value of temperature is studied. The integral transform technique is used. The solutions are obtained in terms of series containing the Mittag-Leffler functions being the generalization of the exponential function. The numerical results are illustrated graphically.
