Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen and a heat flux transducer (HFT) aresandwiched between two flat plates controlled at differenttemperatures, to produce a heat flow through the test stack. Areproducible load is applied to the test stack by pneumatic orother means, t
20、o ensure that there is a reproducible contactresistance between the specimen and plate surfaces. A guardsurrounds the test stack and is maintained at a uniform meantemperature of the two plates, in order to minimize lateral heatflow to and from the stack. At steady state, the difference intemperatur
21、e between the surfaces contacting the specimen ismeasured with temperature sensors embedded in the surfaces,together with the electrical output of the HFT. This output(voltage) is proportional to the heat flow through the specimen,the HFT and the interfaces between the specimen and theapparatus. The
22、 proportionality is obtained through prior cali-bration of the system with specimens of known thermalresistance measured under the same conditions, such thatcontact resistance at the surfaces is made reproducible.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is designed to measure and comparethermal p
23、roperties of materials under controlled conditions andtheir ability to maintain required thermal conductance levels.6. Apparatus6.1 Aschematic rendering of a typical apparatus is shown inFig. 1. The relative position of the HFT to the specimen is notimportant (it may be on the hot or cold side) as t
24、he test methodis based on maintaining axial heat flow with minimal radialheat losses or gains. It is also up to the designer whether tochoose heat flow upward or downward or horizontally, al-though downward heat flow in a vertical stack is the mostcommon one.6.2 Key Components of a Typical Device (T
25、he numbers 1 to22 in parentheses refer to Fig. 1):6.2.1 The compressive force for the stack is to be providedby either a regulated pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder (1), deadweights or a spring loaded mechanism. In either case, meansmust be provided to ensure that the loading can be varied andset to c
26、ertain values reproducibly.6.2.2 The loading force must be transmitted to the stackthrough a gimball joint (2) that allows up to 5 swivel in theplane perpendicular to the axis of the stack.6.2.3 Suitable insulator plate (3) separates the gimball jointfrom the top plate (4).6.2.4 The top plate (assum
27、ed to be the hot plate for thepurposes of this description) is equipped with a heater (5) andcontrol thermocouple (6) adjacent to the heater, to maintain acertain desired temperature. (Other means of producing andmaintaining temperature may also be used as long as therequirements in 6.3 are met.) Th
28、e construction of the top plateis such as to ensure uniform heat distribution across its facecontacting the specimen (8). Attached to this face (or embed-ded in close proximity to it) in a fashion that does not interferewith the specimen/plate interface, is a temperature sensor (7)(typically a therm
29、ocouple, resistance thermometer, or a therm-istor) that defines the temperature of the interface on the plateside.6.2.5 The specimen (8) is in direct contact with the top plateon one side and an intermediate plate (9) on the other side.6.2.6 The intermediate plate (9) is an optional item. Itspurpose
30、 is to provide a highly conductive environment to thesecond temperature sensor (10), to obtain an average tempera-ture of the surface. If the temperature sensor (10) is embeddedinto the face of the HFT, or other means are provided to definethe temperature of the surface facing the specimen, the use
31、ofthe intermediate plate is not mandatory.6.2.7 The heat flux transducer (HFT) is a device that willgenerate an electrical signal in proportion to the heat fluxacross it. The level of output required (sensitivity) greatlydepends on the rest of the instrumentation used to read it. Theoverall performa
32、nce of the HFTand its readout instrumentationshall be such as to meet the requirements in Section 13.6.2.8 The lower plate (12) is constructed similarly to theupper plate (4), except it is positioned as a mirror image.E1530 1126.2.9 An insulator plate (16) separates the lower plate (12)from the heat
33、 sink (17). In case of using circulating fluid inplace of a heater/thermocouple arrangement in the upper orlower plates, or both, the heat sink may or may not be present.6.2.10 The entire stack is surrounded by a guard whosecross section is not too much different from the stacks (18)equipped with a
34、heater or cooling coils (19), or both, and acontrol thermocouple, resistance thermometer or thermistor(20) to maintain it at the mean temperature between the upperand lower plates. A small, generally unfilled, gap separates theguard from the stack. For instruments limited to operate in theambient re
35、gion, no guard is required but a draft shield isrecommended in place of it.NOTE 2It is permissible to use thin layers of high-conductivity greaseor elastomeric material on the two surfaces of the specimen to reduce thethermal resistance of the interface and promote uniform thermal contactacross the
36、interface area.NOTE 3The cross-sectional area and the shape of the specimen maybe any, however, most commonly circular and rectangular cross sectionsare used. Minimum size is dictated by the magnitude of the disturbancecaused by thermal sensors in relation to the overall flux distribution. Themost c
37、ommon sizes are 25 mm round or square to 50 mm round.6.2.11 The instrument is preferably equipped with suitablemeans (21) to measure the thickness of the specimen, in situ, inaddition to provisions (22) to limit compression when testingelastomeric or other compressible materials.NOTE 4This requireme
38、nt is also mandatory for testing materials thatsoften while heated.6.3 Requirements:6.3.1 Temperature control of upper and lower plate is to be60.1 C (0.18 F) or better.6.3.2 Reproducible load of 0.28 MPa (40 psi) has beenfound to be satisfactory for solid specimens. Minimum loadshall not be below 0
39、.07 MPa (10 psi).6.3.3 Temperature sensors are usually fine gage or small-diameter sheath thermocouples, however, ultraminiature resis-tance thermometers and linear thermistors may also be used.6.3.4 Operating range of a device using a mean temperatureguard shall be limited to from 100 to 300 C, whe
40、n usingthermocouples as temperature sensors, and from 180 to300 C when platinum resistance thermometers are used.Thermistors are normally present on more restricted allowabletemperature range of use.7. Sampling and Conditioning7.1 Cut representative test specimens from larger pieces ofthe sample mat
41、erial or body.7.2 Condition the cut specimens in accordance with therequirements of the appropriate material specifications, if any.8. Test Specimen8.1 The specimen to be tested should be representative forthe sample material. The recommended specimen configura-tion is a 50.8 6 0.25 mm (2 6 0.010 in
42、.) diameter disk, havingsmooth flat and parallel faces, 60.025 mm (60.001 in.), suchthat a uniform thickness within 60.025 mm (60.001 in.) isattained in the range from 0.5 to 25.4 mm (0.020 to 1.0 in.) Fortesting specimens with thicknesses below 0.5 mm, a specialtechnique, described in Annex A1, has
43、 to be used. Otherfrequently favored sizes are 25.4 mm (1.00 in.) round or squarecross section.FIG. 1 Key Components of a Typical DeviceE1530 1139. Calibration9.1 Select the mean temperature and load conditions re-quired. Adjust the upper heater temperature (Tu) and lowerheater temperature (Tl) such
44、 that the temperature difference atthe required mean temperature is no less than 30 to 35 C andthe specimen DT is not less than 3 C. Adjust the guard heatertemperature (Tg) such that it is at approximately the average ofTuand Tl.9.2 Select at least three calibration specimens having ther-mal resista
45、nce values that bracket the range expected for thetest specimens at the temperature conditions required.9.3 Table 1 contains a list of several available materialscommonly used for calibration together with correspondingthermal resistance (Rs) values for a given thickness. Thisinformation is provided
46、 to assist the user in selecting optimumspecimen thickness for testing a material and in deciding whichcalibration specimens to use.9.4 The range of thermal conductivity for which this testmethod is most suitable is such that the optimum thermalresistance range is from 10 3 10-4to 400 3 10-4m2KW-1.T
47、he most commonly used calibration materials are the Pyrex7740 and Pyroceram 9606,3Vespel4(polyimide) and stainlesssteel all having well-established thermal conductivity behav-iors with temperature.9.5 Table 2 and Table 3 are listing thermal conductivityvalues for selected reference materials, with t
48、he appropriatebibliographic references appearing in bold characters. Thetemperature range listed for each reference material corre-sponds to the temperature range mentioned in each particularcited work, and in some cases exceeds the applicable tempera-ture range for this test method. The information
49、 was, however,considered useful for the general user, and for that reason itwas listed for the entire temperature range applicable to eachreference material.10. Procedure10.1 Measure the thickness of the calibration specimen to25 m using a suitable caliper or gauge stand.10.2 Coat both surfaces of a calibration specimen with avery thin layer of a compatible heat transfer compound or placea thin layer of elastomeric heat-transfer medium on it to helpminimize the thermal resistance at the int
