Conduction shape factors are convenient parameters for expressing the effect of geometry in two-dimensional
heat transfer problems, usually involving a source and a sink. The conduction shape factor S is defined based
on the relationship:
q = k ⋅ S ⋅ ΔT
where q is heat flow, k the thermal conductivity and T the temperature difference between source and sink.
The factors S have been determined for various situations with analytical techniques.
Example: Consider a long pipe of diameter D, length L and temperature Tp buried horizontally at a depth z
in soil with constant surface temperature Ts.
L ≔ 10 k ≔ 0.4 ―――

Tp ≔ 60 Ts ≔ 0
