Improved Thermal Conductivity Function for Unsaturated Soil with Physics-based Parameters

This paper proposes a new relationship between thermal conductivity and degree of saturation of unsaturated soils, referred to as the thermal conductivity function (TCF). The new sigmoidal relationship between thermal conductivity and degree of saturation was developed so that all parameters have a...
