The results of experimental measurements of the temperature dependence of the effective thermal conductivity of various granite samples obtained by the absolute stationary method in the temperature and pressure ranges of 273- 523 K and 0.1-400 MPa, respectively, are analyzed. The power-law character of the temperature dependence of the effective thermal conductivity for all measured granite samples at atmospheric pressure is established. We have shown that pressure significantly affects the power law of the temperature dependence of the effective thermal conductivity of granite samples. A low-parameter description of the temperature-pressure behavior of thermal conductivity is proposed. A correlation is established between its components.

AbstractThis paper describes a modeling approach to target aspects of heat conduction in metal hydride powders that are essential to metal hydrides as viable H2storage media, including particle morphology distribution, size distribution, particle packing properties at specified solid fraction, and effective thermal conductivity. An isotropic fracture model is presented that replicates features of particle size and shape distributions observed experimentally. The discrete element method is used to simulate evolution of metal hydride particle contact networks during quasi-static consolidation of decrepitated metal hydride powders. Finally, the effective thermal conductivity of such a powder is modeled assuming that contact conductance is the same for each interparticle contact.

The present study on granular material flows develops analytical relations for the flow-induced particle diffusivity and thermal conductivity based on the kinetic theory of dense gases. The kinetic theory model assumes that the particles are smooth, identical, and nearly elastic spheres, and that the binary collisions between the particles are isotropically distributed throughout the flow. The particle diffusivity and effective thermal conductivity are found to increase with the square root of the granular temperature, a term that quantifies the kinetic energy of the flow. The theoretical particle diffusivity is used to predict diffusion in a granular-flow mixing layer, and to compare qualitatively with recent experimental measurements. The analytical expression for the effective thermal conductivity is used to define an apparent Prandtl number for a simple-shear flow; this result is also qualitatively compared with experimental measurements. The differences between the predictions and the measurements suggest limitations in applying kinetic theory concepts to actual granular material flows, and the need for more detailed experimental measurements.
