In the literature, one can find numerous modifications of Fourier's law from which the first one is called Maxwell-Cattaneo-Vernotte heat equation. Although this model has been known for decades and successfully used to model low-temperature damped heat wave propagation, its nonlinear properties are rarely investigated. In this paper, we aim to present the functional relationship between the transport coefficients and the consequences of their temperature dependence. Furthermore, we introduce a particular implicit numerical scheme in order to solve such nonlinear heat equations reliably. We investigate the scheme's stability, dissipation, and dispersion attributes as well. We demonstrate the effect of temperature-dependent thermal conductivity on two different initial-boundary value problems, including time-dependent boundaries and heterogeneous initial conditions.
