Different fromtransformation optics method, the magnification design is realized analytically by enforcingequality of effective thermal conductivity on the magnification device and the reference case inspecified domains. The validity of theoretical analysis is checked by numerical simulation results,which demonstrates the magnifying effects of the proposed design. The device only needsisotropic and homogeneous materials that are easy to obtain in nature. It is also shown that theobtained magnifying conditions are the same as those derived by separation of variables. But theproposed method proves more flexible for multilayered materials and simpler for non-sphericalobjects under non-uniform thermal fields. It can also be extended to other fields and applicationsgoverned by Laplace equation.展开更多
