Conduction of Heat in Solids H. S. Carslaw, J. C. Jaeger
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA

Thermal conduction exists in solids, liquids and gasses. Heat Transfer-Principles & Applications-Binay K. Currently I should simulate the heat conduction through the pulverised materials (like sand) in CFX. Improving your home's energy efficiency is one of the best investments you can make, paying tax-free dividends immediately in the form of lower heating costs. For example, if one end of a metal rod is heated up, the heat will gradually travel to the other end until the entire rod becomes hot. Conduction is most effective in solids-but it can happen in fluids. UNIT II CONVECTIVE HEAT TRANSFER 10. Heat always flows from an area of high energy to an area of low energy. I don´t think it´s a good idea to model it as a continous solid because of the gap between the sand grains. For example, a spoon in a cup of hot soup becomes warmer because the heat from the soup is conducted along the spoon. Heat can flow by conduction, radiation or convection. To slow down the transfer of heat by conduction from one solid to another, materials that are poor conductors are placed in between the solids.

Adding insulation to your Heat moves through solids, liquids, gases and even through a vacuum. Dutta, PHI, New Delhi Reference Books : 1. & Dewill, D.P –John Willey New York. Conduction of Heat in Solids – Carslow, H.S. Warm materials always transfer their heat to cooler materials. Fundamentals of Heat & Mass Transfer–Incropera, F.P.
