**Abstract**
 This paper is the second in a series on the cylindrical orthotropic thermal conductivity of spiral woven composites. It presents a study of the modelling of the effective transverse thermal conductivity of the spiral woven fabric composite. And idealised model was built by idealising the yarn undulations into lineal segments. The mathematical model of the effective transverse thermal conductivity was formulated as functions of the radial position. Using thermal and geometrical parameters, predictions of the effective thermal conductivities for four kinks of spiral woven fabric composites were carried out. It is reported that a fairly good agreement was found between results predicted using the present and previously published models. 28 refs.
