Analogous to Ohm's law in electric circuit theory, Equation 3.3 can be written as [2]<br />

in which<br />

where<br />

AT = temperature difference<br />

8 — wall thickness<br />

jR = thermal resistance<br />

Example<br />

(3.4)<br />

(3.5)<br />

The temperatures of a plastic sheet (30 mm thick) with a thermal conductivity X =<br />

0.335 W/(m K) are TWi = 100 0 C and TWi = 40 0 C accordingto Figure 3.1. Calculate the<br />

heat flow per unit area of the sheet.<br />

Solution<br />

Substituting the given values in Equation 3.3 we obtain<br />
