Fourier equation for Joule heating
Jun Yao

hi, dear all,

For the case of Joule heating of a metal ribbon, the Fourier equation is to be
solved.

However, what does the parameter Cp mean (in the right part of the equation)?
In papers, Cp is explained for ' Cp is the specific heat at constant pressure
times the alloy's density, and its unit is J /m3/K.

Does anyone know something about this? Thanks a lot.
