In this paper, the anisotropic thermal conductivity characteristics of graphene wrinkles are observed for the first time using a non-equilibrium molecular dynamics method. Our results reveal that the wrinkling level has little effect on the thermal conductivity along the wrinkling direction. However, the wrinkling level plays an important role in the reduction of thermal conductivity along the ...

in this paper, the measurement of the viscosity of zno in ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, mixture of ethylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight), and a mixture of propylene glycol and water (60:40 by weight) and the thermal conductivity in ethylene glycol and propylene glycol as base fluids in the range of temperature from 25 ºc to 60 ºc are investigated. the results indicate that as the tem...

objective: studies have demonstrates that physical properties of denture base affect patient satisfaction and acceptance. thermal conductivity is among the most important properties of denture base influencing the sense of taste and gingival health. the conventionally used acrylic resin has a low coefficient of thermal conductivity. this study aimed to improve the thermal conductivity of acryli...

We analyze the thermal conductivity of ions (equivalent to the conductivity of phonons in crystalline matter) in a neutron star envelope. We calculate the ion/phonon thermal conductivity in a crystal of atomic nuclei using variational formalism and performing momentum-space integration by Monte Carlo method. We take into account phonon-phonon and phonon-electron scattering mechanisms and show t...

Funnels are open magnetic structures connecting the chromosphere with the solar corona (Axford & McKenzie 1997; Marsch & Tu 1997; Hackenberg et al. 1999). We investigate the stationary plasma flow out of funnels with a flux-tube model. The funnel area function is derived from an analytical 2-D magnetic field model. Since the funnel height is only approximately 15 Mm, the area function for great...

The relationships between thermal conductivity and other petrophysical properties have been analysed for a borehole drilled in a Tertiary Flysch sequence. We establish equations that permit us to predict rock thermal conductivity from logging data. A regression analysis of thermal conductivity, bulk density, and sonic velocity yields thermal conductivity with an average accuracy of better than ...

The present study concerns oxygen-ion transfer between yttriastabilized zirconia single crystals (YSZ/YSZ) under mechanical contact stress. Two YSZ single crystal plates were piled up between platinum meshes, and contact stress was mechanically applied. The interfacial conductivity as well as the bulk conductivity was successfully measured with this setup. The interfacial conductivity is greatl...

This paper deals with bounds satisfied by the effective non-symmetric conductivity of three-dimensional composites in the presence of a strong magnetic field. On the one hand, it is shown that for general composites the antisymmetric part of the effective conductivity cannot be bounded solely in terms of the antisymmetric part of the local conductivity, contrary to the columnar case studied in ...
