Abstract
A key driver of thermistor response is a thermally-dependent electrical conductivity. Several variants have been proposed in the literature and it is the purpose of this paper to explore the applicability of a bulk model by way of using the heat balance integral approach to predict the response of a positive temperature coefficient thermistor. Conclusions are presented regarding the sensitivity of the response to electrical conductivity.
