TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived equations for predicting the effective thermal conductivity of beds of unconsolidated particles containing stagnant fluid and showed that these equations correctly predict the effect of void fraction and solid and fluid thermal conductivities on the heat transfer properties of sandstones and sintered metal systems.
