Firstly, the probability distribution model of porous materials with random distribution of a great number of cavities is described. Secondly, the SSOTS formulations for predicting effective heat conduction parameters and the temperature field are given. Then, a statistical prediction algorithm for maximum heat flux density is brought forward. Finally, some numerical results for porous materials with different random distribution models are calculated, and compared with the data by theoretical methods. The results demonstrate that the SSOTS method is valid to predict the heat transfer performances of random porous materials.}, issn = {}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/ijnamb/250.html} }
