The purpose of this study was to analyze the thermal properties of metal hydride for its application in hydrogen storage systems. The thermal properties of metal hydride were measured using the Thermal Property Analyzer based on the transient plane source (TPS) method. To verify the accuracy of the TPS method, the thermal properties of stainless steel pellets were measured prior to the metal hydride samples. Unfortunately, the thermal behavior of ...
The purpose of this study was to develop adhesive epoxy resins that used multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to enhance thermal conductivity and dispersion in the polymer matrix. An analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the MWCNTs-based epoxy adhesives using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the addition of MWCNTs improved the coefficient of thermal conductivity of the epoxy resin in comparison to pristine epoxy and epoxy (EP)...
In this study, various filler loadings of thin graphite sheets were added to epoxy adhesives to improve thermal conductivity. Natural graphite powder and graphite nanoflakes were used as reference fillers in the same resin, and the thermal conductivity of each filler was measured with a TPS thermal constants analyzer based on the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the graphene sheets enhanced the thermal conductivity by more than 22 ...
The purpose of this study was to measure the thermodynamic properties of 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([HMIM]BF4) and its graphene-dispersed ionic liquid based nanofluids (Ionanofluids) from room temperature to 200 °C. A thermal analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the samples using the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the thermal conductivity of [HMIM]BF4 and the GE-dispersed Ionanofluids increased linearly with temperature, and with mass particle fraction. It ...
The aim of this study was to fabricate transparent polymers with high thermal conductivities for applications in electronic packaging. Characteristics of the inorganic filler, calcium fluoride (CaF2), and the polymer matrix were examined, and thermal conductivity was measured using a thermal analyzer based on the transient plane source (TPS) method. Results showed that the thermal conductivity of the composites increased with CaF2 content. This study was the first to report ...
