The beat pulse method enables estimation of soil thermal diffusivity (k), volumetric heat capacity (C), thermal conductivity, and water content. The heater needle and temperature-sensing needle may deflect during probe insertion into soils. The impact of needle deflection on estimates of C and k has not been fully studied theoretically or experimentally We defined theta to be the polar angle of needle deviation from the z axis and phi to be the azimuthal angle in the x-y plane. Transient-state analytical Solutions were derived for all inclined and Pulsed finite line source in a parallelepiped sample with Zero Surface temperature and adiabatic boundary conditions. For a heat Pulse sensor with 6-mm needle spacing and a heater needle of 4-cm length in a given parallelepiped (5 by 5 by 5 cm, assumed to be filled with air-dry sand), model errors in C and k were about -11.3 and 12.1%, respectively, for an inclined heater needle with theta = 1 degrees and phi = 0 degrees. Model errors in C and k were about -11.2 and 12.1% respectively, for an inclined sensor needle with theta = 1 degrees and phi = 180 degrees. When -6
