Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
This article explains the theory behind the Transient Plane Source (TPS) technique. The method measures the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of materials (solids, liquids, gels, etc.), in a rapid, non-invasive and highly accurate manner. The TPS method is a great technique to be used for thermal characterization as it has a wider thermal conductivity range (0.005 – 500 W/mK) and an easy set-up. The sensor serves as both a temperature gauge and ...
