In this study, the transient plane source (TPS) technique was used to measure the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of Se85-xTe15Sbx (x = 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10) pellets. These values were then used to determine the specific heat per ...
Knowing the thermophysical properties of insulating building materials is essential in understanding heat loss. In this study, the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of five marble samples were measured using the transient plane source (TPS) technique and compared to results obtained through the transient hot ...
Using the transient plane source (TPS) technique, simultaneous measurements of thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were taken from phenolformaldehyde (PF) composites, reinforced by pineapple leaf fiber. Testing was done on samples of varying weight percentages. Thermal conductivity of pure fiber was evaluated and compared with ...
The effective thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity was measured for chalcogenide glass samples of the formulation Ge30-xSe70Sbx (x = 10, 15, 20, 25). It was found that both the effective thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity were independent of temperature up to 160º C. After this point, both properties were ...
Zinc sulfide nanoparticles were embedded in a poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix to prepare a nanocomposite polymer with a higher thermal conductivity than the pure polymer. It was determined by TEM that at a low concentration of filler particles, the particles are uniformly dispersed throughout the ...
