As Figure 3 shows the temperature profile will be a sttaight line for a flat wall. The profile for the pipe will flatten as it moves radially outward. Because area increases with radius conduction will increase which reduces the thermal gradient. If the thickness of the cylinder is small relative to the radius the cartesian coordinate equation will give an adequate answer. Thermal conductivity is a material property with units of Btu hr foot F Figure 3. Temperature profile for flat wall and cylinder. Tables 3 and 4 show conductivities for metals and common building materials. Note that the materials that are good electrical conductors silver copper and aluminum are also good conductors of heat. Increased conduction will tend to equalize temperatures within a component. Example.
