The present work considers a two-dimensional (2D) heat conduction problem in the semi-infinite domain based on the classical Fourier model and other non-Fourier models, e.g., the Maxwell–Cattaneo–Vernotte (MCV) equation, parabolic, hyperbolic, and modified hyperbolic dual-phase-lag (DPL) equations. Using the integral transform technique, Laplace, and Fourier transforms, we provide a solution of the problem (Green’s function) in Laplace domain. The thermal double-strip problem, allowing the wave interference within the heat conductor, is considered. A numerical technique, based on the Durbin series for inverting Laplace transform and the trapezoidal rule for calculating an integral form of the solution in the double-strip case, is adopted to recover the solution in the physical domain. Finally, discussions for different non-Fourier heat transfer situations are presented. We compare among the speeds of hyperbolic heat transfer models and shed light on the concepts of flux-precedence and temperature-gradient-precedence, hallmarks of the lagging response idea. Otherwise, we emphasize the existence of a relationship between the waves speed and the time instant of interference onset, underlying the five employed heat transfer models.
