Abstract
Starting with thermal conductivity components for the individual continuous unidirectional fiber-reinforced lamina or ply, a method has been developed to determine global conductivities in a laminated carbon/carbon composite. Assuming that all laminae are identical in thickness and in fiber content, effective thermal conductivity in each global direction is determined for the laminated composite. Results are reported for a few selected standard laminate lay-ups and are compared with those reported in the literature.
