Thermal Conductivity: Insulators
? How can we design a solid material with low thermal
conductivity?
Can disperse solid material throughout an air space fiber, powder and
flake type insulations
Cellular insulation Foamed systems
Several modes of heat transfer involved (conduction, convection, radiation)
Effective thermal conductivity: depends on the thermal conductivity and
radiative properties of solid material, volumetric fraction of the air space,
structure/morphology (open vs. closed pores, pore volume, pore size
etc.) bulk density (solid mass/total volume) depends strongly on the
manner in which the solid material is interconnected.

Thermal Diffusivity
Thermophysical properties of matter:
Transport properties: k (thermal conductivity/heat transfer),
(kinematic viscosity/momentum transfer),
D (diffusion coefficient/mass transfer)
Thermodynamic properties, relating to equilibrium state of a system,
such as density, and specific heat cp.
the volumetric heat capacity cp (J/m3.K) measures the ability of a
material to store thermal energy.
Thermal diffusivity is the ratio of the thermal conductivity to the heat

Example 2.3
A long copper bar of rectangular cross section, whose width w is much greater
than its thickness L, is maintained in contact with a heat sink (for example an
ice bath) at a uniform initial temperature To. Suddenly an electric current is
passed through the bar, and an airstream of temperature T is passed over
the top surface, while the bottom surface is maintained at To. Obtain the
differential equation, the boundary and initial conditions that can be used to
determine the temperature as a function of position and time inside the bar.

Example
Passage of an electric current through a long conducting rod of radius
ri and thermal conductivity kr results in uniform volumetric heating at a
rate of q . The conducting rod is wrapped in an electrically
nonconducting cladding material of outer radius ro and thermal
conductivity kc, and convection cooling is provided by an adjoining
fluid.
For steady-state conditions, write appropriate forms of the heat
equations for the rod and cladding. Express appropriate boundary
conditions for the solution of these equations.
