Thermal conductivity of solids with gas pockets

Input(s)

$k_{o}$: Thermal Conductivity of Solid Phase $(\mathrm{W} / \mathrm{m} \mathrm{K})$

$k_{1}$: Thermal Conductivity of the Gas (W/m K)

Ø: Porosity (fraction)

$\mathrm{T}$: Temperature $(\mathrm{K})$

L: Length $(\mathrm{m})$

$\sigma$: Stefan-Boltzmann Constant $\left(\mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{s}^{3} \mathrm{~K}^{4}\right)$

Output(s)

$k_{\text {eff: }} \quad$ Effective Thermal Conductivity (W/m K)
