Discussion :: Heat and Mass Transfer
- Thermal diffusivity is
A.
A dimensionless parameter |
B.
Function of temperature |
C.
Used as mathematical model |
D.
A physical property of the material |
Answer : Option D
Explanation :
Thermal Diffusivity is defined as the ratio of heat conducted to the heat energy stored per unit volume of a material. Its SI unit is m^2/s. It describes how fast heat can be transferred across the medium. Greater the value of thermal diffusivity, faster is the propagation of heat through the medium
