Thermal Conductivity Derivation| Dimension of thermal conductivity

The thermal conductivity of a material (designated as k) is the measure of how quickly heat energy is transferred or conducted from one end of the material to the other end. In this post we will work on the derivation of the thermal conductivity formula first, then we will find the dimension of thermal conductivity as well. Derivation […]

Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics and thermal equilibrium

By Anupam M

This post is on Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics. To discuss this we will begin with a briefing on the definition of Thermodynamics and the concepts of Thermal Equilibrium in the context of Thermodynamics. The Zeroth Law of Thermodynamics throws light on a major condition of thermal equilibrium among systems. Thermodynamics – define it Thermodynamics is […]
