Intercomparison of thermal conductivity measurements on an expanded glass granulate in a wide temperature range

This article aimed to compare the thermal conductivity of expanded glass granulate at high temperature ranges using a variety of steady state and transient testing methods (Guarded Hot Plate, Heat Flow Meter, Pipe Tester, Sphere, Hot Wire, Transient Hot Bridge). The thermal conductivity of the expanded glass granulates was determined from 170°C to 530°C with the different methods and apparatuses. The thermal conductivity was found to have increased from about 0.030 ...

Composition dependence of some thermo-physical properties of multi-component Se78-xTe20Sn2Bix (0 < x < 6) chalcogenide glasses

The multi-component quaternary materials of the Se78-xTe20Sn2Bix (x = 0, 2, 4, 6) chalcogenide glasses system were synthesized with varying bismuth (Bi) composition by using a melt quenching technique. The thermal transport properties (effective thermal conductivity, diffusivity, and specific heat per unit volume) of the glasses were determined using the transient plane source (TPS) technique at room temperature. The TPS measurements found ...

Thermo-physical properties of multi-component Se78-xTe20Sn2Pbx chalcogenide glasses

The Transient Plane Source (TPS) technique was used to evaluate the thermal transport characteristics (such as thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, specific heat per unit volume) in multi-component Se78-xTe20Sn2Pbx glasses at room temperature. From the experimental results, it was noted that thermal conductivity decreased with lead (Pb) content in the ternary Se78Te20Sn<...

Simultaneous measurements of thermal conductivity and diffusivity of Se(85-x)Te(15)Sb(x) (x = 2, 4, 6 and 10) chalcogenide glasses at room temperature

In this study, the transient plane source (TPS) technique was used to measure the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of Se85-xTe15Sbx (x = 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10) pellets. These values were then used to determine the specific heat per unit volume of these glasses in the composition range of investigation. It was found that 4 at% of Sb (antimony) results in the critical composition of ...

Comparative study of the mechanical and thermal properties of lightweight cementitious composites

A comparative study was conducted on the properties of lightweight cementitious composites (LWCCs) mixed with four types of filler particles; EPS beads, dry-expanded plastic microspheres, hollow glass microspheres, and fly ash cenospheres. Thermal conductivity was tested using the transient plane source method. Results showed that thermal conductivity of LWCCs are dictated by the volume of lightweight functional filler (LWF) used and are insensitive to the type of LWF....
