Abstract

A method is developed for solving two-dimensional, steady-state heat-transfer problems with thermal conductivity dependent on temperature. The quantity ∫ KdT is employed in the analysis and although this quantity has been known for some time,2, 3 it seems that the real usefulness of this quantity in analysis has not been, in general, recognized.
