This study outlines the design of a final repository for nuclear waste in bedrock, by the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company. Thermal property testing is required to determine the canister separation distance within the repository. The transient plane source thermal constants analyzer was ...
The purpose of this research was to understand the impact of heat on bone. The thermal conductivity of human cortical bone, bovine cortical bone, and simulated cortical bone. The TPS instrument was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the samples, the anisotropic module was ...
Wood is still commonly used to produce window frames in many parts of the world. In this application the orientation of the wood is very important, as its anisotropic properties mean that heat loss could be greatly influenced by how the piece is cut. Manufacturers ...
The Transient Plane Source thermal constants analyzer stands out in the field of thermal conductivity testing equipment due to its ability to measure anisotropic materials. In this paper, the mathematical derivation of the equation used in the anisotropic software module of the TPS is used ...
The production of closed cell foams has recently advanced as the materials gain interest. The purpose of this study was to use the transient plane source (TPS) method to measure the thermal conductivity of AlSi7 closed cell foams. Results showed that thermal conductivity increased with ...
