Insert the information in the form and the calculator will determine the thermal diffusivity.

What is the thermal diffusivity?

The thermal diffusivity is the thermal conductivity divided by density and specific heat capacity at constant pressure.

How to calculate thermal diffusivity?

To calculate thermal diffusivity you should use the following formula:
thermal diffusivity = thermal conductivity / (density * specific heat capacity)

Why use thermal diffusivity?

The thermal diffusivity is used in order to give a measure of how quickly the temperature will change when it is heated or cooled.
