name for equation?
Is there a name for partial differential equations of the form $$ \frac{\partial^2}{{\partial x}^2} V = K \frac{\partial}{\partial t} V $$ ?
 * I believe this is the heat equation in one dimension. --RDBury (talk) 00:24, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you! That takes me to Parabolic partial differential equation, which is what I'm looking for. RJFJR (talk) 01:16, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
