Contact Conductance

Contact Conductance is a thermal transport property that quantifies the rate of heat transfer across an interface between two contacting bodies per unit area and unit temperature difference, distinguishing it from bulk thermal conductivity by specifically characterizing interfacial energy exchange efficiency.
