My Problem is the modelling of the heat conduction to the surrounding air. As this Experiment is under 0g there is no convection (insignificantly small) but conduction. I am not sure if there is a function for conduction such as there is one for convection or do I have to design for example a big block arround the rack and set air as the material? Thanks for any help!
