  • Thermal Diffusivity and Volumetric Specific Heat Measurements Using Heat Flow Meter Instruments for Thermal Conductivity 29 / Thermal Expansion 17 Conference *
    Title: Thermal Diffusivity and Volumetric Specific Heat Measurements Using Heat Flow Meter Instruments for Thermal Conductivity 29 / Thermal Expansion 17 Conference * Authors: Akhan Tleoubaev Andrzej Brzezinski * not published in the Proceedings because of late submission ABSTRACT Heat Flow Meter Method (ASTM C518, ISO 8301, EN 1946-3, etc.) instruments are the most widely used steady-state type of devices for thermal conductivity measurements. In computerized systems the heat flow meters’ (transducers’) signals can be recorded versus time. The recorded signals can give additional information about other important thermal properties of the samples – volumetric specific heat and thermal diffusivity. Volumetric specific heat can be calculated simply from amount of the heat flow per square area absorbed by sample after switching instrument’s plates’ temperature set points from one (after reaching thermal equilibrium condition) to another (until reaching new thermal equilibrium condition) . For thermal diffusivity calculations two unsteady state thermal problems solutions should be used: 1) with boundary conditions of 1st kind (so-called ideal thermal contact, i.e. when thermal contact resistance is negligible) - for samples of low thermal conductivity, and 2) with boundary conditions of 3rd kind (in presence of thermal contact resistance) - for samples of moderate thermal conductivity. After reaching so-called “regular regime” thermal diffusivity of the specimen can be calculated using slopes of the graphs of logarithms of the heat-flow meters’ signals versus time (slopes of their linear part) during the process of the system’s exponential relaxation toward the final thermal equilibrium. Experimental checks using several materials - Expanded Polystyrene, 1450b and 1450c NIST Standard Reference Materials, Pyrex 7740, Vespel SP1, Perspex, Pyroceram 9606 were done.

How- ever, reports of its in-plane thermal conductivity vary due to the difficulty of in-plane thermal conductivity measurements on thin films, and an experimental measurement of the in-plane sound velocity has not been reported. Here, we use time-resolved transient grating spectroscopy to simultaneously measure the in-plane elastic and thermal prop- erties of free-standing MoS2 membranes at room temperature. We obtain a longitudinal acoustic phonon velocity of 7000 ± 40 m s 1 and an in-plane thermal conductivity of 74 ± 21 W m 1K 1.

With the moving point or line heat source may be considered for the analysis that indicates the temperature gradient ahead of the heat source is much higher than that behind, increasing welding velocity elongates the isotherms surrounding the heat source, higher thermal conductivity of materials make the isotherm more circular, reducing the temperature gradient in front of the heat source. The peak temperature experienced throughout the workpiece, determine the size of the heat affected zone (HAZ). The peak temperature at a given point is experienced by the point shortly after it is passed by the heat source. The size of the HAZ increases with the net energy input. The cooling rates experienced by a material, determines the grain structure and phases that are formed.

  • A Method for Indirect Measurements of Thermal Properties of Foods
    SIK-rapport 2002, No. 703 A Method for Indirect Measurements of Thermal Properties of Foods Eva Olsson, Hans Janestad, Lilia Ahrné SIK-rapport 2002, No. 703 A Method for Indirect Measurements of Thermal Properties of Foods Eva Olsson, Hans Janestad, Lilia Ahrné Göteborg, 2002 ISBN 91-7290-223-X ABSTRACT A method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, volumetric heat capacity and the heat transfer coefficient for foods heated/cooled by convection. The method uses experimental time-temperature data of the food and the medium, which are used in a parameter estimation procedure based on the conduction heat transfer equation in one dimension for an infinite cylinder. To increase the accuracy in the results the estimations are performed in a number of sub-steps under varied model conditions, for example is an inner fictive cylinder used. The suggested method estimated the thermal diffusivity, the heat conduction and the volumetric heat capacity with a maximal relative error in the interval 6-9%. This study shows the well known difficulty of separating the thermal conductivity and the volumetric heat capacity in the expression for the thermal diffusivity, caused among other things by the uncertainty in the estimation of the heat transfer coefficient.

According to the surveyed literature, in situ methods can be divided into 'active' drill hole methods, and 'passive' indirect methods utilizing other drill hole measurements together with cutting samples and petrophysical relationships. The most common active drill hole method is a cylindrical heat producing probe whose temperature is registered as a function of time. The temperature response can be calculated and interpreted with the aid of analytical solutions of the cylindrical heat conduction equation, particularly the solution for an infinite perfectly conducting cylindrical probe in a homogeneous medium, and the solution for a line source of heat in a medium.
