Analytic solutions of heat conduction during welding which were first found by Resenthal have some restrictions. One of these is that models to which analytic solutions can be applied must have simple geometric shape, and another is that quasi-stationary state must be created. On the other hand, computational methods developed recently with the aid of the computer can overcome these shortcomings, but the methods raise problems from economic point of view when they are applied to 3 dimensional problems. Taking account of these problems, a new method combinig the analytic method with the computational one is proposed. This method can be ued in weldments with complicated geometric shape in non-stationary state, but with the aid of the analytic method can reduce the computing time.
