It just tells you how hard it is for the energy to go there; which then relates it to the temperature difference. Just like how telling you how hard is it for the current to flow allows you to relate it to the voltage difference. | |
Nov 16, 2019 at 19:28 | comment | added | alberand | oh, yes of course voltage not current =) So, therefore, I can say that if heat transfer rate say how much and WHERE energy goes the thermal resistance tells me how much and where energy doesn't go. So, in simple words, thermal resistance doesn't show me energy which was lost somehow but the energy which didn't go to where it suppose to go. Is that closer to the truth? | |
