Heat transfer across a granular flow is comprised of two resistances in series : near the wall and within the bulk particle bed, neither of which is well understood due to the lack of experimental probes to separate their respective contribution. Here, we use a frequency modulated photothermal technique to separately quantify the thermal resistances in the near-wall and the bulk bed regions of particles in flowing states. Compared to the stationary state, the flowing leads to a higher near-wall resistance and a lower thermal conductivity of bulk beds. As a result, coupled with discrete element method simulation, we show that the near-wall resistance can be explained by particle diffusion in granular flows.
