Abstract

"It is the object of this thesis to express the relationship between the heat transfer through a square insulator of variable inside-outside dimension ratios, in terms of a concentric round insulator of the same inside-outside diameter ration, by means of a continuous curve. Mathematically speaking, this thesis will have a plot of a variable coefficient, c[subscript s], to be used...in terms of the ratio of the width of the outside square to the width of the inside square" – Statement of Problem, p. 8.
