Experimental 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...
متن کاملThermal-insulation performance of low density polyethylene (LDPE) foams: Comparison between two radiation thermal conductivity models
The loss of energy especially in industrial and residential buildings is one of the main reasons of increased energy consumption. Improving the thermal insulation properties of materials is a fundamental method for reducing the energy losses. Polymeric foams are introduced as materials with excellent thermal insulation properties for this purpose. In the present study, a deep theoretical invest...
متن کاملMeasuring Thermal Conductivity by Ångstrom’s Method
In this experiment, κ, the thermal conductivity of a rod of brass, was measured by periodically heating one end of the rod. Turning the heater attached to the rod on and off with a 10 mHz square wave signal, waves of heat were sent along the length of the rod, measured by two thermistors a distance ∆x apart. Taking these temperatures as a function of time, a Fourier transform was applied to a 1...
متن کاملExperimental Setup for Measuring the Thermal Conductivity of Pressurized Solutions
Knowledge about the thermal conductivity is expedient whenever heat transport is involved in a process. As pressure plays an important role in a multitude of treatments or reactions, conductivity measurements have also been carried out under pressure for various substances (e. g. lubricants, plant oils and several foods). Experimental data are needed as this property cannot be derived from equa...
متن کاملLow lattice thermal conductivity of stanene
A fundamental understanding of phonon transport in stanene is crucial to predict the thermal performance in potential stanene-based devices. By combining first-principle calculation and phonon Boltzmann transport equation, we obtain the lattice thermal conductivity of stanene. A much lower thermal conductivity (11.6 W/mK) is observed in stanene, which indicates higher thermoelectric efficiency ...
