A cylinder of radius R is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of inner radius R and outer radius 2R. The thermal conductivity of the material of the inner cylinder is K 1 and the of the outer cylinder is K 2 . Assuming no loss of heat, the effective thermal conductivity of the system for heat flowing along the length of the cylinder is :
- K 1 + K 2
- 4 K 3 K 2 1 +
- 2 K K 2 1 +
- 5 K 3 K 2 2 1 +
Correct answer: 4 K 3 K 2 1 +
