Relationship between Thermal Conductivity and Diffusivity
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about the relationship between thermal conductivity and diffusivity. In thermal conductivity and diffusivity the movement of heat in the soil will be considered. Because it is found that much of the solar radiation is dissipated into the atmosphere. Part of it, however, moves slowly through the soil profile […]
Factors Affecting Soil Temperature and Its Control
Article shared by :
After reading this article you will learn about the factors affecting soil temperature and its control. Factors affecting Soil Temperature: 1. Soil texture: Sandy soils, in general, warm up quicker than clayey or fine-grained soils. A fine-grained soil carries a large amount of water they are for this reason also slow to warm. Soil moisture […]
