Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
A new application for the transient hot-wire technique for thermal conductivity measurements has been described. It is intended to provide an accurate means of implementation of the method to the determination of the thermal conductivity of solids exemplified by a standard reference ceramic material. Measurements of the transient temperature allows an absolute determination of the thermal conductivity of the solid. The uncertainty achieved for the thermal conductivity is better than ±1%, ...
