Abstract A hybrid model is proposed to easily predict the effective thermal conductivity of composites with aligned- and coated-short fibers, whose aspect ratio is not constant. The thermal conductivities of coated fillers are computed by using the generalized self-consistent model, resulting in that composites are simply simulated by the matrix with the equivalent short fibers. Finally, the thermal conductivity of the composites is predicted using the modified Eshelby model. The predicted results by the representative models and hybrid model are compared for the composite with aligned- and coated-short fibers of single aspect ratio. It is demonstrated that the hybrid model can be applied to the composite with aligned- and short-fibers of aspect ratios, 2 and 10, without any difficulties.
