Influence of surface roughness and waviness upon thermal contact resistance

This work deals with the phenomenon of thermal resistance between contacting solids. Attention is directed towards contiguous solids possessing both surface roughness and waviness. When two such surfaces are brought together under load, they actually touch at isolated microcontacts, and the resultin...
