Abstract
The knowledge of several transport properties is important especially when heat transfer has to be evaluated. However, not always the data such as thermal diffusivity is known or available for specific types of material. In this paper, a study was performed to describe the equations that lead to the calculus of thermal diffusivity, heat transfer and calculus of temperature in function of time of a sphere particle that is immersed in a well stirred fluid. The model obtained was tested by comparing the predicted thermal diffusivity value of an orange and the real value.
