The researchers used the transient plane source (TPS) technique for the measurement of a variety of solid and liquid reference materials in order to assess the capability of the TPS technique. Specifically probe size and contact were studied to see how they affected the transient ...
Patent submitted for the transient plane (TPS) technique detailing all the relevant information about the technique....
Using the dynamic plane source (DPS) technique, the thermal properties of highly and lowly thermally conducting materials were measured. The theory behind the technique is explained, and three well known materials are analyzed and the accuracy of the method is found to be within 5% of ...
The authors describe the dynamic plane source, a transient method of measuring the thermal conductivity, diffusivity and specific heat of a sample. This method uses a sensor, and relies on the premise of an adiabatic system. Using this method, the thermal properties of cast iron, ...
Using the transient plane source (TPS) method, the thermal conductivities of a series of crosslinked closed-cell polyethylene foams were measured. The experimental values obtained were compared to measurements made by a steady-state method (heat-flow meter). Through the use of the TPS technique, it was possible ...
