The temperature distribution of a curved barrier heated by constant flux on one side is studied. Both the right-angled corner and the rounded corner are solved by the method of domain decomposition and matching. It is found that hot spot temperatures may reach 2.5 times that of a flat barrier but may be tempered with appropriate rounding at the corner.
