Thermal and physical properties of reconsolidated crushed rock salt as a function of porosity and temperature

Crushed salt can be used as a backfill in salt repositories to bury and conduct heat away from radioactive waste in salt repositories. Since crushed salt compacts during reconsolidation, its thermo-physical properties will vary because of changes in porosity. A Transient Plane Source thermal constant analyzer was used to measure thermal conductivity of the salt samples. Thermal conductivity was found to decrease with increasing temperatures....

Thermophysical properties of launch complex 17 of the Cape Canaveral concrete

It is important to understand the thermophysical properties of concrete when it is quickly heated, such as at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. In this experiment, the transient plane source (TPS) method measured the thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat of four concrete samples taken from the Launch Complex 17 at Cape Canaveral. The samples were measured from room temperature up to 300 °C over intervals of 50 °C. Results showed ...
