Composite materials are materials made of reinforcing substances that are set in a matrix of polymers, ceramics or metals. This experiment measured the thermal conductivity of wood and ceramics, and explored the factors that influence the thermal conductivity. The Transient Plane Source (TPS) method was ...
As technology advances, so must our methods. One of the most important aspects when working with physical instruments is to maintain heat flow in the desired direction. The transient plane source is a single unit that produces heat while doubling as a temperature sensor, so ...
