New representative equations are put forth for the thermal conductance of ethanol (C2H6O) which are based on a body of experimental data that has been critically assessed for agreement with theory where possible. The data was obtained through use of the thermal hot wire technique, among others. For the dilute gas case, a theoretically based correlation was used to extend ...
New representative equations are put forth for the thermal conductance of benzene (C6H6) which are based on a body of experimental data that has been critically assessed for internal consistency and for agreement with theory. The data was obtained through use of the thermal hot wire technique, among others. These correlations are applicable from the triple point to temperatures up to 725 ...
New representative equations based on critically assessed experimental data obtained through the thermal hot wire technique, among others, are put forth for the thermal conductance of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). These correlations are applicable from the triple point to temperatures up to 1000 K, and pressures up to 150 MPa with overall uncertainties less than 4 percent....
The transient hot wire method was used to measure the thermal conductivity of the following polyatomic gases: hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon monoxide and methane. The measurements occurred in the range from 0.8-10 MPa, at 35 degrees Celsius, and have an estimated uncertainty of ±0.2%....
A new design was presented of a portable transient hot wire apparatus for measuring the thermal conductivity of solids. The design features a two-wire sensor with silicon layers, compact printed electronic board and a high-tech software suite that utilizes the Finite Elements Method to model heat flow. This methodology is 120x's faster than any previous approach and can reduce the number of ...
