Abstract
Heat may be transported in a number of different ways but the mechanisms fall into two classes — those that are of purely thermal origin and those that are not. In the latter class we would place advective processes — the movement of fluids driven by, for example, a hydraulic gradient; although of considerable importance in terrestrial heat-flow density work, these processes are not discussed in this chapter (but see Chapters 2.3., 5.5., 5.6., 9.4.3.). In the former class the three principal mechanisms are convection, radiation, and lattice (or phonon) conduction. The relative contributions from each of these three mechanisms depends upon the prevailing local conditions. For example, radiation transfer is not very significant below 1000 K (see also Chapter 4.3.) but above this temperature can be represented by a coefficient λ R where:
where n = mean refraction index \( \\bar \varepsilon \) = mean extinction coefficient \( \bar \varepsilon \) = Stefan-Boltzmann constant T = absolute temperature.
