December 4, 2016, 22:08	Anisotropic thermal conductivity	#1
David Christopher New Member Dave Christopher Join Date: Dec 2009 Posts: 26 Rep Power: 17	I do not understand the anisotropic thermal conductivity. The definition in Fluent states that the heat flux in the x direction includes effects of the temperature gradients in the y and z directions. How can the temperature gradients in the y and z directions affect the heat flux in the x direction?
