Understanding Infrared Thermography Reading 7 Part 2 of 2.pdf

The Fourier Conduction Law:
Q/A
Q
= K (T 1 -T 2 ) / L
= K∙ΔT∙A / L
Where:
Q/A
L
T 1
T 2
K
= the rate of heat transfer through the slab per unit area
perpendicular to the flow
= the thickness of the slab
= the higher temperature (at the left)
= the lower temperature (at the right)
= the thermal conductivity of the slab material
