This article summarizes thermal properties testing on granular salt that has been consolidated under a wide range of temperature, stress, and moisture conditions. Thermal property measurements were taken on four different sample groups: laboratory-consolidated granular salt using domal and bedded salt types, granular salt that ...
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 ...
The thermophysical properties of crushed salt were measured as it reconsolidated. The main focus of the work was to determine the thermal conductivity of the salt at temperatures ranging from -75 to 300ºC. It was determined that the thermal conductivity of reconsolidated crushed salt decreased ...
