Resistance to heat flow by CONDUCTION is proportional to ΔT,A,1/density.
because q=mcΔt.
m=v*density.
and q is inversely proportional to the resistance.

Resistance for conduction.

R = x/kA.
Where R (resistance), x (thickness of wall material), k (thermal conductivity), A( Area).

q = (t1-t2)/R;

q = mCp(ti-t2).
So R = 1/mCp.
And m=density*volumetricflow rate.

q = hA(t1-t2).
R = 1/hA.

@Deekshant.

q = hA (t1-t2) is for convection not conduction.

Is it calculated using q=-kA.dx/dt?

Please tell me.
