I am new to Heat Sink selection and calculations.
I have run into two different representations for units of measure.
For instance, I found some Thermal Joint Compound information that states that the thermal resistance is:
0.05 Deg C / W.
A table below that says that the Thermal Conductivity is:
0.735 W / (m * K)
Can someone walk me through the steps? I would like to understand mathematical relationship between these two values.
Can you point me to where I can read it or write out the math form the conversion?
Thanks
John
