This article deals with the parabolic equation ∂tw − c(t)∂2x w = f in D, D = { (t, x) ∈ R2 : t > 0, φ1 (t) < x < φ2(t) } with φi : [0,+∞[→ R, i = 1, 2 and c : [0,+∞[→ R satisfying some conditions and the problem is supplemented with boundary conditions of Dirichlet-Robin type. We study the global regularity problem in a suitable parabolic Sobolev space. We prove in particular that for f ∈ L2(D) there exists a unique solution w such that w, ∂tw, ∂jw ∈ L2(D), j = 1, 2. Notice that the case of bounded non-rectangular domains is studied in [9]. The proof is based on energy estimates after transforming the problem in a strip region combined with some interpolation inequality. This work complements the results obtained in [19] in the case of Cauchy-Dirichlet boundary conditions
