W. Kiepert et al., ROUGHNESS EFFECTS ON TRANSIENT SURFACE HEATING AND THERMAL-PROPERTIES, SIMULATED BY FINITE-ELEMENT SOLUTIONS OF THE DIFFUSION EQUATION, Progress in Natural Science, 6, 1996, pp. 317-320
To calculate the effects of surface roughness on the thermal propertie
s of opaque rough solids, the heat diffusion equation has been solved
for different surface geometries by FE simulation of heat pulse absorp
tion. The surface geometry has been varied in shape and size.
