Temperature relaxation and the Kapitza-boundary-resistance paradox.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The calculation of the Kapitza boundary resistance between dissimilar harmonic solids has since long (Little [Can. J. Phys. 37, 334 (1959)]) suffered from a paradox: this resistance erroneously tends to a finite value in the limit of identical solids. We resolve this paradox by calculating temperature differences in the final heat-transporting state, rather than with respect to the initial state of local equilibrium. For a one-dimensional model we thus derive an exact, paradox-free formula for the boundary resistance. The analogy to ballistic electron transport is explained.

Extending the range of validity of Fourier's law into the kinetic transport regime via asymptotic solution of the phonon Boltzmann transport equation
We derive the continuum equations and boundary conditions governing phonon-mediated heat transfer in the limit of a small but finite mean-free path from the asymptotic solution of the linearized Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation. Our approach uses the ratio of the mean-free path to the characteristic system length scale, also known as the Knudsen number, as the expansion p...
متن کاملAppraisal of the Cmn/helium Kapitza Resistance
It is argued that the thermal resistance between cerium magnesium nitrate (CMN) and pure He,He containing He* impurity or dilute He in He"* can be understood in terms of the phonon bottlenecked spin-lattice resistance within the CMN and a size dependent thermal boundary resistivity. The fact that emerges is that the phonon bottleneck within the CMN is strongly dependent upon whether the CMN is ...

A combination of ab initio, atomistic and finite element methods (FEM) were used to investigate the structures, energetics and lattice thermal conductance of grain boundaries for the ultra high temperature ceramic ZrB2. Atomic models of idealized boundaries were relaxed using density functional theory. Information about bonding across the interfaces was determined from the electron localization...

2014 We consider a steady state heat flux flowing through a metallic slab in contact with liquid helium, and study the spatial variations of the phonon and electron heat fluxes in the vicinity of the solid-helium interface, by solving simultaneously the phonon Boltzmann equation and the electron energy balance equation. A mean phonon temperature, defined in each mode, presents a non linear beha...
