A Study and Mathematical Modelling of thermal conductivity of a Thermodynamic System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Theoretical available values of thermal conductivity are commonly different from the experimentally obtained values. In the present work, a thermodynamic system has been considered and variations in temperature in different elements were analyzed and corresponding thermal conductivities were calculated. These values were compared and the corrected values were justified on the basis of a mathematical model made by introducing semi-empirical corrections. The theoretical value of the thermal conductivity of an isolated system (KT) and the corresponding corrected value were found in agreement with each other.

In this paper, Wavelet Collocation Method has been used to solve nonlinear fin problem with temperature dependent thermal conductivity and heat transfer coefficient. Thermal conductivity of fin materials varies any type so that we consider thermal conductivity as the general function of temperature. Here we consider three particular cases, where we assume that thermal conductivity is constant,...

Interatomic potentials, which describe interactions between elements of nanosystems, are crucial in theoretical study of their physical properties. We focus on two well known empirical potentials, i.e. Tersoff's and Brenner's potentials, and compare their performance in calculation of thermal transport in carbon nanotubes. In this way, we study the temperature and diameter dependence of thermal...
