See conductivity,thermal.DISCUSSIONThermal conductivity and resistivity are normally considered to be intrinsic or specific properties of materials and, as such, should be independent ofthickness. When nonconductive modes of heat transfer are present within the specimen (radiation, free convect

To indicatethe possible presence of this phenomena (for example, thickness effect) the modifier “apparent” is used, as in apparent thermal conductivity.DISCUSSIONTest data using the “apparent” modifier must be quoted only for the conditions of the measurement.

35、 special-case simplifications of the more general definition:thermal conductivity, a tensor property defined by the tensor equation:q52T (3)where q is the heat flux vector, and T (grad T) is the temperature gradient vector. Except in theoretical discussions, this generalized form of thedefinition is

36、 seldom used. For experimental situations, the geometry of the testing apparatus and the specimen are chosen such that Eq 3 reduces tothe one-dimensional scalar equation:Q52A dTdu (4)where:Q = heat flow rate,A = area through which Q passes, = thermal conductivity, anddT/du = the temperature gradient

37、 in the direction of heat flow.At steady state, Eq 1 and Eq 2 are consistent with Eq 4 if T is sufficiently small. If T is not sufficiently small, then Eq 1 and Eq 2 define a mean thermalconductivity over the T range, and this range in addition to the mean temperature should be stated.DISCUSSIONIf t
