Reply To: Average temperature rise calculation in Diabolo antenna plasmonic heat generation

I understand that. But then the average temperature will not match the theoretical values calculated by the equation: q=s*k* (temperature rise) mentioned in the paper below. The equation is for semi-infintie heat disk (which is true for 100um x 100um also) and not a function of the total area.
