Special attention is paid to the economy and widespread introduction of resource-saving and environmentally friendly technologies and to the problems of obtaining and exploitation of new materials, improvement of the goods’ quality.The quality control of materials, which have been used for plain bearings manufacture, during repair action of construction machinery and equipment, as well as reduction of cost and duration of technical control operations implementation are among the issues for repair service organizations. Their solution would enable to increase post-repair resource, cut down failures number, and reduce costs of faults removal in warranty period.Materials and methods. The authors suggest a thermal method of plain bearings materials quality assessment in internal combustion engines. This method is remarkable for its comparative simplicity; it does not require destruction of the material and application of expensive equipment.Results. The dependences of “Cummins” and “Mahle” bushings thickness change on the heating temperature as well as samples warming temperature dependence on test duration have been obtained. According to the derived results such parameters as specific heat and thermal conductivity coefficient are defined. The results of carried out tests show that thermal physic parameters of unoriginal bushings differ from original ones by 11% in thermal conductivity coefficient and by 1.56 times in specific heat.Discussion and conclusions. The calculation of specific heat, thermal conductivity of plain bearings allows to determine the probability of their failure at the stage of entrance control and therefore, to make a more correct decision when choosing parts for execution high-quality repair. As  a consequence of temperature change comparison, when bushings samples of “Cummins” and “Mahle” companies are heated, it could be concluded that heating intensity of an original bushing is 17% higher and the reciprocal of bushing temperature gradient under warming is 1.27 times lower in comparison with an unoriginal plain bearing.

A study of the thermophysical characteristics, heat resistance, and thermal erosion resistance of high-temperature structural ceramics (SC), which was developed at NTUU "I. Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute" under the supervision of Corresponding Member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Professor P. I. Loboda was made. This high-temperature structural ceramics is intended for use in aerospace engineering, in particular - for the manufacture of aerodynamic surfaces of reusable hypersonic aircraft and heat-stressed elements of the gas-dynamic paths of their engines. The samples of B4C-SiC-B6Si ceramics of two compositions (No. 1 and No. 2) were studied, which differ in the mass content of the initial components. Temperature dependences of the specific heat and thermal conductivity of the spacecraft, radiation coefficient, heat resistance in an oxidizing environment, and the thermal erosion resistance in supersonic flow of combustion products of an air-kerosene fuel mixture were determined. The temperature dependence of the specific heat was determined using an IT-c-400 instrument (in the range of 40 °C - 440 °C) and by the calculation of the temperature dependences of the specific heat capacity of the system components following the Reno rule (up to 2100 °C). The temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity coefficient of the SC of composition No. 1 was determined by solving the inverse heat conduction problem on a computer model based on experimental data. Temperature fields and heat fluxes were obtained under conditions of one-sided heat-ing with a reducing flame of a propane-oxygen welding burner. The thermal conductivity coefficient of SC composition No. 1 increases from 11 W/(m×K) at 20 °С to 25 W/(m×K) at 1400 °С. Its radiation coefficient in the temperature range 1000 °С - 1400 °С is ε = 0.96 ± 0.02. Heat resistance of SC of both compositions in the oxidizing flame of an oxygen welding burner at a surface temperature of 1400 °C has demonstrated that after two hours of heating, the average values of mass ablation for the two tested samples of compositions №1 and № 2 respectively 2.1% and 1.4% (a sample thickness of 4 mm). Tests in the supersonic flow of combustion products at the same surface temperature confirm the high resistance of the material to thermoerosion in the oxidizing medium. The change in the morphology of the heated surface of the sample after six five-minute heating cycles was manifested only by an increase in its roughness without visible oxidation. High thermal conductivity, heat and thermoerosion resistance, radiation coefficient of the studied SC at a temperature of 1400 °C in combination with low density (2.7 g / cm3) make this high-temperature structural material of aerospace technology promising for use.

The paper describes changes in thermal properties in the process of freezing of marine raw materials. The study objects were the skin of giant octopus (Octopus dofleini L.), pallium of Pacific squid (Todarodes pacificus L.), milt of Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii L .), a nd muscle t issue of Japanese c ucumaria (Cucumaria japonica L.). The mathematical relations of the studied thermal parameters allowing the calculation of specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity coefficient and tissue density of the studied objects in the process of freezing were obtained. It was found that the change in the total specific heat capacity during the freezing of all the objects under study was of the same type: first, this figure increases due to the intensive ice formation in the tissues of hydrobionts, and then decreases due to a significant decrease in the content of the liquid aqueous phase. The values of the total specific heat capacity before the freezing of seafood were determined (kJ/kg·K): 4.26 for squid, 3.58 for milt of Pacific herring, 3.66 for octopus skin, and 3.95 for the shell of cucumaria. It was revealed that an increase in the amount of frozen out water decreased the density of samples of frozen raw materials. This was due to the high (77.4–88.9%) content of water, turning into ice, which has a lower density index. The values of hydrobionts’ tissue density before freezing were obtained ( 0 ρ , kg/m3): 1226.74 for squid, 1209.6 for milt of Pacific herring, 1128.55 for octopus skin, and 031.26 for shell of cucumaria. It was established that the thermal conductivity of the hydrobiont tissue samples in the process of freezing increased with the growth of the proportion of frozen out water contained, approaching the thermal conductivity of ice. The calculated values of thermal conductivity coefficient of seafood tissue prior to freezing equal (W/m·K): 0.52 for squid, 0.47 for milt of Pacific herring, 0.63 for octopus skin, and 0.53 for cucumaria. The obtained thermal characteristics values of the objects studied are recommended for use in technical and technological calculations of aquatic biological resources cooling treatment processes.

Thermal properties of materials such as specific heat, thermal diffusivity, and thermal conductivity are very important in the engineering design process and analysis of aerospace vehicles as well as space systems. These properties are also important in power generation, transportation, and energy storage devices including fuel cells and solar cells. Thermal conductivity plays a critical role in the performance of materials in high temperature applications. Thermal conductivity is the property that determines the working temperature levels of the material, and it is an important parameter in problems involving heat transfer and thermal structures. The objective of this research is to develop thermal properties data base for carbon-carbon and graphitized carbon-carbon composite materials. The carbon-carbon composites tested were produced by the Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) process using T300 2-D carbon fabric and Primaset PT-30 cyanate ester. The graphitized carbon-carbon composite was heat treated to 2500°C. The flash method was used to measure the thermal diffusivity of the materials; this method is based on America Society for Testing and Materials, ASTM E1461 standard. In addition, the differential scanning calorimeter was used in accordance with the ASTM E1269 standard to determine the specific heat. The thermal conductivity was determined using the measured values of their thermal diffusivity, specific heat, and the density of the materials.

AbstractIn a bid to develop paper bricks as alternative masonry units, unmodified banana fibers (UMBF) and alkaline (1 Molar aqueous sodium hydroxide) modified banana fibers (AMBF), fine sand, and ordinary Portland cement were blended with waste paper pulp. The fibers were introduced in varying proportions of 0, 0.5, 1.0 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 wt% (by weight of the pulp) and curing was done for 28 and 56 days. Properties such as water and moisture absorption, compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strengths, thermal conductivity, and specific heat capacity were appraised. The outcome of the examinations carried out revealed that water absorption rose with fiber loading while AMBF reinforced samples absorbed lesser water volume than UMBF reinforced samples; a feat occasioned by alkaline treatment of banana fiber. Moisture absorption increased with paper bricks doped with UMBF, while in the case of AMBF-paper bricks, property value was noted to depreciate with increment in AMBF proportion. Fiber loading resulted in improvement of compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strengths and it was noted that AMBF reinforced samples performed better. The result of the thermal test showed that incorporation of UMBF led to depreciation in thermal conductivity while AMBF infusion in the bricks initiated increment in value. Opposite behaviour was observed for specific heat capacity as UMBF enhanced heat capacity while AMBF led to depreciation. Experimental trend analysis carried out indicates that curing length and alkaline modification of fiber were effective in maximizing the properties of paperbricks for masonry construction.

This study aims to provide a thermophysical characterization of a new economical and green mortar. This material is characterized by partially replacing the cement with recycled soda lime glass. The cement was partially substituted (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60% in weight) by glass powder with a water/cement ratio of 0.4. The glass powder and four of the seven samples were analyzed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The thermophysical properties, such as thermal conductivity and volumetric specific heat, were experimentally measured in both dry and wet (water saturated) states. These properties were determined as a function of the glass powder percentage by using a CT-Meter at different temperatures (20 °C, 30 °C, 40 °C and 50 °C) in a temperature-controlled box. The results show that the thermophysical parameters decreased linearly when 60% glass powder was added to cement mortar: 37% for thermal conductivity, 18% for volumetric specific heat and 22% for thermal diffusivity. The density of the mortar also decreased by about 11% in dry state and 5% in wet state. The use of waste glass powder as a cement replacement affects the thermophysical properties of cement mortar due to its porosity as compared with the control mortar. The results indicate that thermal conductivity and volumetric specific heat increases with temperature increase and/or the substitution rate decrease. Therefore, the addition of waste glass powder can significantly affect the thermophysical properties of ordinary cement mortar.

The present contribution aims to address a problem of thermoviscoelasticity for the analysis of the transition temperature and thermal stresses in an infinitely circular annular cylinder. The inner surface is traction-free and subjected to thermal shock heating, while the outer surface is thermally insulated and free of traction. In this work, in contrast to the various problems in which the thermal conductivity coefficient is considered to be fixed, this parameter is assumed to be variable depending on the temperature change. The problem is studied by presenting a new generalized thermoelastic model of thermal conductivity described by the Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation. The new model can be constructed by incorporating the relaxation time thermal model with the Green–Naghdi type III model. The Laplace transformation technique is used to obtain the exact expressions for the radial displacement, temperature and the distributions of thermal stresses. The effects of angular velocity, viscous parameter, and variance in thermal properties are also displayed to explain the comparisons of the physical fields.
