The effect of surface roughness and waviness upon the overall thermal contact resistance
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1966], 1966)
A thermal contact conductance equation was developed which considers both the effect of surface roughness and waviness. It was shown that the overall thermal contact conductance is determined by the roughness at large ...
Influence of surface roughness and waviness upon thermal contact resistance
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, [1967], 1967)
This work deals with the phenomenon of thermal resistance between contacting solids. Attention is directed towards contiguous solids possessing both surface roughness and waviness. When two such surfaces are brought together ...
Thermal contact conductance in a vacuum
(Cambridge, Mass. : M.I.T. Engineering Projects Laboratory, [1965], 1965)
The object of this work is to develop analytically equations by which one could predict the thermal contact conductance between contiguous surfaces operating in a vacuum environment. In this work the solution to the problem ...
