چکیده

The air flow resistivity of glass wool has been measured in different directions. The glass wool was delivered from the manufacturer as slabs measuring 100x600x900 mm3, where the surface 600x900 mm2 was parallel with the conveyor belt used in the manufacturing. Directions in the glass wool are described by a coordinate system with the X axis perpendicular to the conveyor belt, the Z axis in the direction the conveyor belt moves, and the Y axis perpendicular to the two other axes. It was found that the resistivities in the Y and Z directions were equal in all cases. For density 14 kg/m3 the mean resistivity in the X direction was 5.88 kPa s m(-2) and in the Y direction 2.94 kPa s m(-2). For density 30 kg/m3 the mean resistivity in the X direction was 15.5 kPa s m(-2) and in the Y direction 7.75 kPa s m(-2). A formula for prediction of resistivity for other densities is given. By comparing measured values of sound attenuation with results calculated from resistivity data, it is demonstrated that the measured attenuation can be predicted in a simple manner.

Measurements of anisotropic sound propagation in glass wool

The attenuation coefficient and phase velocity of plane sound waves propagating in three perpendicular directions in glass wool were measured in the frequency range 50-10,000 Hz. For glass wool of mass density 14 kg/m3 at the frequency 1,000 Hz, the attenuation constant for propagation perpendicular to the glass wool sheets was 75 dB/m, and for propagation parallel with the sheets 57 dB/m. For ...

Electrical Resistivity Measurement of the Molten Cordierite Glass Using Two-wire method

Electrical resistivity (ER) is a main parameter in the melting processes of glasses. However, its measurement is difficult at high temperatures. In this study the electrical resistivity of different cordierite glass samples in the molten state was measured in the temperature range of 1100˚C to 1550 ˚C using the two-wire method. It was attempted to decrease the electrical resistivity of the glas...
