Effective Conductivity of an Isotropic Heterogeneous Medium of Lognormal Conductivity Distribution
The study aims at deriving the effective conductivity Kef of a three-dimensional heterogeneous medium whose local conductivity K(x) is a stationary and isotropic random space function, of lognormal distribution and finite integral scale IY . We adopt a model of spherical inclusions of different K, of lognormal pdf, that we coin as a multi-indicator structure. The inclusions are inserted at rand...
متن کاملEffective Unsaturated Hydraulic Conductivity
Steady-state and transient one-dimensional unsaturated flow in vertically stratified porous media are examined. Saturated hydraulic conductivity and the alpha parameter of the exponential hydraulic conductivity function were assumed to vary from soil layer to soil layer. The use of effective unsaturated hydraulic conductivity to compute matric potential in the soil profile is demonstrated. Resu...
متن کاملEffective conductivity of suspensions of overlapping spheres
An accurate first-passage simulation technique formulated by the authors [J. Appl. Phys. 68, 3892 (1990)] is employed to compute the effective conductivity LT, of distributions of penetrable (or overlapping) spheres of conductivity a, in a matrix of conductivity (TV. Clustering of particles in this model results in a generally intricate topology for virtually the entire range of sphere volume f...
متن کاملStrong-contrast expansions and approximations for the effective conductivity of isotropic multiphase composites
We extend the previous approach of one of the authors on exact strong-contrast expansions for the effective conductivity se of d-dimensional two-phase composites to case of macroscopically isotropic composites consisting of N phases. The series consists of a principal reference part and a fluctuation part ~a perturbation about a homogeneous reference or comparison material!, which contains mult...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of the Alumina/Paraffin Thermal Conductivity Nanofluids with a New Correlated Equation on Effective Thermal Conductivity
Liquid paraffin as a coolant fluid can be applied in electronic devices as a result to its suitable capabilities such as electrical insulating, high heat capacity, chemical and thermal stability, and high boiling point. However, the poor thermal conductivity of paraffin has been confined its thermal cooling application. Addition of high conductor nanoparticles to paraffin can fix this drawback...
