In this research, we discuss the construction of analytic solution of non-homogenous initial
boundary value problem including PDEs of fractional order. Since non-homogenous initial
boundary value problem involves Caputo fractional order derivative, it has classical initial and
boundary conditions. By means of separation of variables method and the inner product defined
on 𝐿
ଶ
[0, 𝑙], the solution is constructed in the form of a Fourier series with respect to the
eigenfunctions of a corresponding Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem including fractional
derivative in Caputo sense used in this study. Illustrative example presents the applicability and
influence of separation of variables method on fractional mathematical problems.
