“…They have seemed to yield different results, depending on whether radiation or contact heating techniques have been used (Price, 1988). In a series of studies with radiation heating, Adair and coworkers (Adair, Stevens, & Marks, 1968) found an exponent near unity, whereas in several experiments with contact heating, Price and coworkers (Price, 1988;Price, Barrell, & Gracely, 1980;Price & Harkins, 1987;Price, McGrath, Rafii, & Buckingham, 1983) observed a much more expansive power function with exponents of about 2.1.…”
