Homework Statement



I'm trying to come up with a situation, perhaps in a mathematical calculation, or characteristic describing physical phenomena that is related to temperature times power. I know that thermal conductivity is measured in temperature divided by power, but unsure of a scenario were temperature times power comes up. I'm just looking for an example and can't seem to find anything. Thanks for any help.

Physics news on Phys.org
Google found this. See bottom of page 1. I'm afraid I haven't looked at it very carefully so might not be quite what you are looking for...

In thermal conduction problems, for example, the product of "effort" variable and "flow" variable is again not power, but power times temperature.

"In thermal conduction problems, for example, the product

But for thermal conduction I thought that the effort variable was hear flow rate and temperature. Where are they getting power times temperature confuses me

You haven't found anything in the last 2 weeks in your own research or with our ideas? Where does this question come from anyway?
 
No I have found nothing. That document didn't really explain anything. I honestly haven't had much time. It's just for my own curiosity, and because I find it odd that there doesn't seem to be anything.
