Notes:
In this paper, the Finite Element and lattice Monte Carlo methods are used to calculatethe effective thermal conductivity of two models of a composite: circular and square inclusionsarranged in a square planar arrangement. A new lattice Monte Carlo method based around Fick’sFirst Law is also presented. Excellent agreement is found between these quite different methods. Itis also shown that the results are in excellent agreement with the century-old Maxwell Equation
