A report based on thermal conductivity measurements of samples from 53 of the first 80 ocean drilling project legs. The data was collected, shipboard by collecting the core samples, then pushing a transient line source probe through the core into the soft sediments. The temperature-time response of this technique gives a two-dimensional value for a plane perpendicular to the needle axis. Corrections are made ...
High temperatures play a crucial role in the deterioration of the thermal properties of rocks and can threaten the structural integrity of many applications in engineering. This research focused on the variations in thermal diffusivity of sandstone after high temperature heating. Thermal properties of the samples were measured before and after heating using a thermal constants analyzer based on the Transient Plane Source (TPS) technique. Thermal diffusivity of the sandstone ...
