I believe that a good book to start with is:
Carslaw H.S and Jaeger J.C., 1959, Conduction of Heat in Solids, 2nd edition:
Oxford at the Clarendon Press, pp.1-510.
Maybe there are more recent editions of this marvelous book.
Carslaw and Jaeger solve the Fourier equation of heat conduction in solids for
a large number of different geometries.
I hope it helps
Best regards
