Join us at the International Thermal Conductivity Conference (ITCC) and the International Thermal Expansion Symposium (ITES).
Thermal conductivity of alumina and kaolin clay were investigated as a function of the water content at different stages of drying compared to linear shrinkage. Thermal conductivities of the samples were measured using the transient plane source methods. Samples were encapsulated in a polyvinyl film to ensure a constant temperature in the sample while drying. Results found thermal conductivity varied at the beginning as values increased, then decreased significantly at ...
