The effect of surface roughness and waviness upon the overall thermal contact resistance
A thermal contact conductance equation was developed which considers both the effect of surface roughness and waviness. It was shown that the overall thermal contact conductance is determined by the roughness at large contact pressures or rough surfaces. It is also shown that surface roughness incre...
