Does the formula in the program have relevant documents for reference?

Program is based on the thermal effusivity equation.

However, a lot of simplification have been made :

  • Since it is a matrix of matter, elements have the same size and their is no resistance between them
  • Since it is an iterative model, time is a defined constant

Assuming this, the effusivity coefficient multiplied by a constant lambda is homogeneous to the heat capacity.
where the dimension of lambda is : m^2.s^(1/2)

This allows us to evaluate the energy of a cell from the energy transmitted by the neighboring cells.
