Two-dimensional FE models of CGI with different pearlite contents for thermal conductivity analysis were established according to the real metallographic images obtained by Pro/E and ANSYS. Meanwhile, thermal conductivity of CGI with different pearlite contents was tested through the laser flash method. It is indicated that the thermal conductivity of CGI declines with the increase of pearlite. When pearlite is increased from 10% to 80%, the experimental values decline from 46.63 W/m·K to 36.86 W/m·K, reducing by 21%. However, this declining tendency becomes gentle and slight when pearlite is more than 40%. In addition, the calculation results with the consideration of interfacial contact thermal conductance (ICTC) and pearlite are much close to experimental values; especially when pearlite is 80%, the difference between them is only about 2%. It can be concluded that the FE models are convenient and reasonable to analyze thermal conductivity of CGI.

First Time

A suspension of particles below 100 nm in size, usually termed as nanofluid, often shows a notable enhancement in thermal conductivity, when measured by the transient hot-wire method. In contrast, when the conductivity of the same nanofluid is measured by the laser flash method, the enhancement reported is about one order of magnitude lower. This difference has been quantitatively resolved for the first time on the basis of the collision-mediated heat transfer model for nanofluids proposed earlier by our research group. Based on the continuum simulation coupled with stochastic analysis, the present theoretical prediction agrees well with the experimental observations from different measuring methods reported in the literature, and fully accounts for the different results from the two measuring methods mentioned above. This analysis also gives an indication that the nanofluids are unlikely to be effective for heat transfer in microchannels.

Thermal conductivity of as-prepared MoSi2/SiC composites has been determined by Laser Flash method. Interfacial thermal conductance for composites with 100nm SiC and with 0.5µm has been determined by using effective medium theory. The results of interfacial thermal conductance exhibit that both the inclusion size and the clustering of the inclusions play an important role in determining composite thermal conductivity.

The influence of the geometric shape of the samples on the uncertainty of the coefficient of thermal conductivity measurement of materials by the method of a laser flash has been studied. Using a method of mathematical modeling in the Comsol Multiphysics software, a model that simulates the process of measuring the coefficient of thermal conductivity of samples made of graphite, Mg2Si0.4Sn0.6 and bismuth telluride using a laser flash method has been created. Samples of cylindrical shape with plane-parallel sides and samples in the form of a truncated cylinder, as well as samples in the form of a parallelepiped with a square base, were investigated. It is shown that the measurement uncertainty of samples with plane-parallel sides and sizes up to 12.7 mm, does not exceed 2%. For samples in the form of a truncated cylinder with a diameter of 3 mm and at an angle of ϕ= 1.5°, the measurement uncertainty does not exceed 3%. With an increase in the sample diameter and the ϕ angle, the measurement uncertainty increases significantly.

Thermal properties of PEEK/silicon carbide(SiC) and PEEK/carbon fiber(CF) were investigated from ambient temperature up to 200°C measured by laser flash method. Thermal conductivity was increased from 0.29W/m-K without filler up to 2.4 W/m-K with at 50 volume % SiC and 3.1W/m-K with 40 volume % carbon fiber. Values from Nielsen theory that predicts thermal conductivity of two-phase system were compared to those obtained from experiment.

AbstractIt seems that no satisfactory TE property has been found in n-type oxide bulk materials even though Al-doped ZnO and La-doped SrTiO3 have high thermoelectric (TE) responses. Difficulty in developing high-performance TE materials seems to lie in finding low thermal conductivity in such oxides. The purpose of this study is to find a possibility to make an n-type TE oxide bulk material having low thermal conductivity and excellent TE properties as well. For this purpose, we fabricated and examined a series of composites constructed of TiO2 and Ln-doped SrTiO3 fine crystals. The composites were prepared via two processing steps: (1) precursor oxide preparation by wet processes; (2) sintering by using spark plasma sintering (SPS) apparatus. The microscopic structure was examined by using scanning electron microscope (SEM; HITACHI S-4500 model) attached with an energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The electrical conductivities and the Seebeck coefficients were measured simultaneously using an ULVAC ZEM-1 instrument in helium atmosphere. The thermal diffusivities were measured by a laser flash method in vacuum. The composites obtained here were found to commonly have a mosaic type texture constructed of TiO2 and SrTiO3 fine particles with a typical size of 500 nm. The thermal conductivity values measured for three samples with different contents are ranged between 3 and 4 Wm-1K-1 in the temperature range from room temperature to 800 C. The values are apparently lower than the value for single crystal SrTiO3 samples presented in literature. Taking account the other TE data, e.g. Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity, we calculated dimensionless figure of merit, ZT, to be at maximum 0.15 at 800°C.

Abstract In this study, a new laser flash system was proposed for the determination of the thermal conductivity of brown coal, hard coal and anthracite. The main objective of the investigation was to determine the effect of coal rank, composition, physical structure and temperature on thermal conductivity. The solid fuels tested were medium conductors of heat whose determined thermal conductivities were in the range of 0.09 to 0.23W/(mK) at room temperature. The thermal conductivity of the solid fuels tested typically increased with the rank of coal and the measurement temperature. The results of this study show that the physical structure of solid fuels and temperature have a dominant effect on the fuels’ thermal conductivity.
