Thomson in Encycl. Brit. XI. 581/2 It is k/c, not merely k, that expresses the quantity of the substance on which the phenomenon chiefly depends. We therefore propose to give to k/c the name of thermal diffusivity. 1973 J. G. Tweeddale Materials Technol. I. iv. 95 Thermal diffusivity (a) is important when it is necessary to consider the effects of temperature differences set up in a material during transfer of heat. 1973 J. G. Tweeddale Materials Technol. I. iv. 95 Both thermal conductivity and diffusivity cease to have much meaning for the liquid state since in that state the principal mechanism of transfer becomes convective mixing. < as lemmas |
