Abstract
The transient heating in an unsymmetrical, coated, hot-strip sensor was simulated with a self-adaptive finite-element method (SAFEM). The first tests of this model show that it can be used to determine, with a small error, the thermal conductivity of liquids, from the transient temperature rise in the hot strip, which is deposited in a substrate and coated by an alumina spray.
