Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
The present study used the transient plane source (TPS) technique to measure the thermal conductivity of a series of AlSi7 metal foams prepared by the powder metallurgical route. The main difference between the different foam samples was their density, which led to a change in thermal conductivity. In addition to measuring thermal conductivity, the TPS sensor was used to detect in-homogeneities by placing it on each face of a cube ...
