This paper studied in-depth the transient hot plate method, by comparing this method to others in order to develop a short test time in which thermal effusivity and thermal conductivity can be measured simultaneously. To investigate this proposed model, four metal samples were analyzed using various techniques to ensure the accuracy between methods. To encompass a wide thermal conductive range, the thermal conductivities of the four metal samples tested, ranged ...
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%, ...
