Question:

An alumina insulator for an electrical device is also to serve as a heat sink. A 10°C temperature rise in an alumina insulator 1 cm x 1 cm x 0.02 cm is observed during use. Determine the thickness of a high-density polyethylene insulator that would be needed to provide the same performance as a heat sink. The density of alumina is 3.96 gycm3.
