Two metallic plates of equal thicknesses and thermal conductivities K1 and K2 are put together face to face and a common plate is constructed, figure. The equivalent thermal conductivity will be:


- \(\frac{\mathrm{K}_{1} \mathrm{~K}_{2}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2}}\)
- \(\frac{2 \mathrm{~K}_{1} \mathrm{~K}_{2}}{\mathrm{~K}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2}}\)
- \(\frac{\mathrm{K}_{1}+\mathrm{K}_{2}}{2}\)
- \[\frac{\left(K_{1}^{2}+K_{2}^{2}\right)^{3 / 2}}{2 K_{1} K_{2}}\]
Answer
(B) 2 ~K _ 1 ~K _ 2 ~K _ 1 + K _ 2
