Thermal diffusivity of marble.
Thermal diffusivity is usually denoted α but a κ k and d are also used.
In heat transfer analysis thermal diffusivity is the thermal conductivity divided by density and specific heat capacity at constant pressure.
Thermal diffusivity of air dried barre granite westerly granite salem limestone and holston marble as a function of temperature.
It has the si unit of m s.

Conduction convection and radiation.
Thermal diffusivity a with the unit mm 2 s is a material specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction.
Definition of thermal diffusivity.

It has the si derived unit of m s thermal diffusivity is usually denoted α but a h κ k and d are also used.
These will be discussed later in this chapter.
It measures the rate of transfer of heat of a material from the hot end to the cold end.

Thermal diffusivity and thermal expansion.
In heat transfer analysis thermal diffusivity is the thermal conductivity divided by density and specific heat capacity at constant pressure.
This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.
It measures the rate of transfer of heat of a material from the hot side to the cold side.
