Homework Statement
Quick question about Thermal Conductivity,
I have 2 plates each with thickness x, with respective thermal conductivities A and B. what is the effective thermal conductivity?
Homework Equations
Q/(delta t) = -k(Area)dT/dx where k= thermal conductivity A or B T=temperature Q= heat t=time
The Attempt at a Solution
Can I just add the thermal conductivities? solve the equation for k in both A and B cases taking into account that when solving for B T initial is different.
