Theoretical accuracy of anisotropic thermal conductivity determined by transient plane source method

This article studied the potential thermal conductivity deviation of anisotropic materials using a numerical simulation. Anisotropic thermal conductivity may experience deviation due to its noncompliance of the theoretical assumption of the transient plane source (TPS) method. The TPS method was used to measure the in-plane ...

A simple dynamic measurement technique for comparing thermal insulation performances of anisotropic building materials

The authors have presented a review of steady-state and transient measurement techniques for the determination of thermal conductivity, and have introduced a new method for the determination of thermal transport properties in anisotropic building materials, known as the dynamic adiabatic technique. It was found that ...

Predictions of effective thermal conductivities for three-dimensional four-directional braided composites using the lattice Boltzmann method

The authors present a multiple-relaxation-time lattice Boltzmann model with an off-diagonal collision matrix for use in predicting the thermal conductivity of anisotropic heterogeneous materials with anisotropic components. Model accuracy was first confirmed through comparison with previous simulation results. In this paper the model was applied ...

Determination of specific heat capacity by transient plane source

This study developed a model that used a transient plane source (TPS) sensor to measure the specific heat capacity of anisotropic materials. The underside of a sample holder with a diameter of 20 mm, and a height of 5 mm was attached to a Kapton TPS sensor. ...

Heat transfer of mineral-filled polypropylene foamsĀ 

Minerals are often added to polypropylene (PP) foams to improve thermal conductivity. The aim of this study was to test and compare the thermal conductivity of unfilled, magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2)-, and montmorillonite (MMT)-reinforced PP foams. An analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of ...
