ZrO2-4mol% Y2O3 coatings on zirconia substrate were deposited by EB-PVD. Influence of the coating thickness on thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of coated samples is examined. The fractured surface of the coated samples reveals a columnar microstructure consisting of feather-like structure. We have adopted a laser flash method for thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity of coated samples. It was found that the thermal conductivity of the coating layers was strongly dependent on coating thickness. The thermal conductivity of coating layers shows increasing tendency with increasing the coating thickness.

Standard Laser

This study further develops the standard laser flash method for the measurement of multiple thermal properties of semiconductor melts. The standard laser flash method is widely used to measure thermal diffusivity of solids. Our modified procedure allows thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, and specific heat capacity of molten semiconductor material to be determined simultaneously. The transient heat transfer process in the melt and its quartz container was computationally studied in detail. A fitting procedure based on the numerical result and the least root-mean-square error fitting to the experimental data was used to extract thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity, and thermal conductivity. The results for tellurium (Te) at 873 K: specific heat capacity 300.2 J/kg K, thermal conductivity 3.50 W/m K, thermal diffusivity 2.04×10−6 m2/s, are in good agreement with data published in the literature. Furthermore, uncertainty analysis showed quantitatively the effect of sample geometry, transient temperature measured, and the energy of the laser pulse on the results.

Major Factors

Abstract Fouling is one of the major factors that drastically affects heat exchanger performance. Especially in Middle East where most of the heat exchangers are air cooled due to scarcity of water. As these heat exchangers are placed in a harsh climate, they are at high risk of low performance due to dusty/sticky particulate fouling. In order to identify possible active/passive methods to control or ideally eliminate particulate fouling, it is desirable to know exact thermophysical properties of such particulate fouling. This study presents thermophysical property characterization of selected fouling samples from eight different fin fan heat exchangers installed in an oil & gas facility in the Middle East. Laser flash Analysis (LFA) method is a well-known technique for measurement of the thermophysical properties: thermal diffusivity, specific heat and thermal conductivity of materials. A new technique was developed to prepare powder particulate fouling samples to make them as disc shaped samples while maintaining the range of ± 12 mm diameter and ± 2 mm thickness. The LFA measurements was conducted using LFA 447 Nano Flash Netzsch over the temperature range from 25 °C to 125°C. The thermal diffusivity was measured with an accuracy of ± 3% and the specific heat capacity with an accuracy of ± 5%. As the thermal conductivity is a product of these two measured values, is calculated with an accuracy of ± 5.8% and the measurement repeatability was within 2%.

Graphitized Carbon

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.

Thermal conductivity values at the temperature of 301-303K have been measured for Zea mays straw board as well as Zea mays heartwood (cork) board. Comparative study of the thermal conductivity values of the boards reveal that Zea mays heartwood board has a lower thermal conductivity value to that of the straw board. The study also shows that the straw board is denser than the heartwood board. Specific heat capacity value is less in value for the heartwood board than the straw board. These parameters also affect the thermal diffusivity as well as thermal absorptivity values for the two types of boards. The result favours the two boards as thermal insulators for thermal envelop but with heartwood board as a preferred insulation material than the straw board.

Foamed Concrete

The addition of mesocarp fibre as a bio-composite material in foamed concrete can be well used in building components to provide energy efficiency in the buildings if the fibre could also offer excellent thermal properties to the foamed concrete. It has practical significance as making it a suitable material for building that can reduce heat gain through the envelope into the building thus improved the internal thermal comfort. Hence, the aim of the present study is to investigate the influence of different volume fractions of mesocarp fibre on thermal properties of foamed concrete. The mesocarp fibre was prepared with 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60% by volume fraction and then incorporated into the 600, 1200 and 1800 kg/m3 density of foamed concrete with constant cement-sand ratio of 1:1.5 and water-cement ratio of 0.45. Hot disk thermal constant analyser was used to attain the thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity of foamed concrete of various volume fractions and densities. From the experimental results, it had shown that addition of mesocarp fibre of 10-40% by volume fraction resulting in low thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity and high the thermal diffusivity of foamed concrete with 600 and 1800 kg/m3 density compared to the control mix while the optimum amount of mesocarp fibre only limit up to 30% by volume fraction for 1200 kg/m3 density compared to control mix. The results demonstrated a very high correlation between thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity which R2 value more than 90%.

Paraffin is an excellent photo-thermal conversion phase change energy storage material, and extensively used in the thermal storage field at the medium-low temperature. However, the low thermal conductivity of paraffin restricts its application in practice. Adding nanoparticles into paraffin is one of the effective methods to improve its thermal conductivity. Nevertheless, the thermal diffusivity, specific heat and volumetric heat capacity of paraffin as well as timeliness were affected after the addition of nanoparticles. In this paper, the influences of volume fraction of Al2O3 nanoparticle and timeliness on these thermal parameters of paraffin were investigated. The results show that the thermal conductivity of paraffin-based Al2O3 nanofluids increases first and then decreases with time, and the maximum thermal conductivity is 0.34 W/[Formula: see text] for volume fraction 1% on third day. The higher volume concentration, the lower specific heat and volumetric heat capacity, all present downtrend over time, until stable in the range of 0.3 MJ/[Formula: see text] and 0.4 MJ/[Formula: see text]. The average enhancement rate of specific heat and volumetric heat capacity are concentrates on −6% to 9%, −10% to 0%, respectively. While increasing the volume concentration, the thermal diffusivity has no obvious regularity, and presents undulatory property over time.
