Hello,
I have a question for expert in termodynamics.
Let's assume I have a copper conductor made of two big disks connected with a very thin wire.
Let's imagine I have a current pulse starting somewhere in the wire, and assume the current density is high, like 100A/mm^2.
This current will heat the wire locally but I guess the heathing will be distributed in the whole conductor.
How can I calculate the time required for heath to be distributed in the whole conductor?
To be more general: how long it take 1°C of thermal jump to flow in a copper conductor?
Is there any formula that answer my question?
Thank you
