The transient plane source method is used to measure the thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and the specific heat of solid and some liquid materials. With an instrument, a double spiral nickel sensor is sandwiched between two homogenous samples, and as the sensor pulses electrical currents ...
This article is a review of techniques used to measure thermal transport properties. Emphasis is placed on the hot strip and pulse hot strip methods. The development, and theory of each method is described in detail....
