26、on)X1. GENERAL INFORMATIONX1.1 If a test specimen in the form of a disk is held betweentwo flat surfaces, each controlled at a different temperature, aflow of heat passes through the sample from the hot to the coldsurface. The thermal conductivity is determined by the follow-ing equation:k 5qADxDTW/
27、mKorBtuin./h ft2F (X1.1)where:q = heat flow through the sample, watt (Btu/h),A = cross-sectional area of the sample, m2(ft2),Dx = sample thickness, mm (in.), andDT = temperature difference across the sample, C (F).X1.2 The heat flow per unit area is measured with a heatflow transducer, a sensitive d
28、evice producing an electricaloutput that is directly proportional to the heat flux, q/A. If theoutput of the heat flow transducer (HFT) is called f than thek-factor can be calculated from:k 5 NfDxDT(X1.2)X1.3 In this equation f, DT, and Dx can be measured bysimple means, while the calibration consta
29、nt, N, can bedetermined by testing a sample of known thermal conductivity.X2. CALCULATIONSX2.1 After thermal equilibrium has been established, thevarious sensors may be read and recorded. Data reduction isdependent upon the positions of the thermocouples for mea-suring the sample DT, as follows:X2.1

(X2.1)NOTE X2.1The sample thickness must be adjusted to account for thethermocouples being slightly below the surface, see Fig. 2.X2.1.2 A calibration run must first be made using a calibra-tion standard of known thermal cond

(Acorrectionfactor can be obtained from the calibration test data.)X2.1.4 The calibration sampl
33、e must have a set of thermo-couples installed in grooves in the upper and lower surfaces.During calibration the following results are obtained:kr5 NfrDxrDTr(X2.5)where:DTr5 T12 T2(X2.6)X2.1.5 From the various thermocouple readings we cancalculate the total interfacial temperature drop as follows:d5T
34、h2 Tc!r2DTr(X2.7)The interfacial temperature drop, d, is proportional to theheat flux, Nfras follows:d5rNfr(X2.8)where r is a proportionality constant and depends mostly onthe surface conditions and on the applied pressure on the teststack. It is assumed that r remains essentiality constant fromtest
35、 to test so long as the applied pressure remains the same.The contact coefficient r is thus obtained from Eq X2.6.5Borosilicate No. 7740 has been found to be a suitable reference standardmaterial. This can be purchased with the test equipment. The reference standardused should be documented in the t
36、est report.F 433 02 (2009)4r5dNfr(X2.9)X2.1.6 When the unknown sample is tested, the followingdata must be recorded: fs, Th,Tc, and Dxs. The correctedtemperature drop across the sample is as follows:DTs5 Th2 Tc!s2rNfs(X2.10)Substituting Eq X2.9 as follows:DTs5 Th2 Tc!s2dfsfr(X2.11)The thermal conduc
37、tivity of the unknown sample is asfollows:ks5 NfsDxsDTs(X2.12)Combining Eq X2.3 and Eq X2.10 we have the following:ks5 krfsfrDxsDxrDTrDTs(X2.13)where:DTr5 T12 T2, (X2.14)andDTs5 Th2 Tc!s2dfsfr(X2.15)in which:d5Th2 Tc!r2DTr(X2.16)X2.1.7 Substitution of Eq X2.4, Eq X2.9, and Eq X2.5 wehave the followi

Also, note that thecalibration data, subscript r, needs to be obtained only once at eachtemperature level. Thermocouple
39、 readings may be kept in mV and neednot be converted to C (F) except for determining the average sampletemperature.)X2.1.8 If an analog calculator is used to obtain the unknownsample k-factor and thermocouples are installed in the samplesurface: The DT signal is then obtained by connecting thethermo
40、couples differentially; the HFT and DT signals areamplified and divided electronically with the results shown ona digital volt meter (Fig. 4). The gain of the final stageamplifier can be varied to produce an output voltage equal tothe thermal conductance of the sample in any desired set ofunits. In
41、other words, if the thermal conductance, (C=k/Dx),of the sample is 15 Btu/hft2F, the output voltage of theanalog calculator is 15 V. The k-factor is obtained by multi-plying the displayed value by the sample thickness, Dx,measured separately.X2.1.9 However, the instrument first must be calibrated by
42、testing a reference sample of known thermal conductivity.After thermal equilibrium has been established in the test stack,the C-factor is determined by taking k/Dx and the final gain isadjusted until the displayed value equals C.X2.1.10 If thermocouples are located permanently in thesurface adjacent
43、 to the sample, a correction must be made inthe determination of the sample DT to account for interfacialresistance. The differential of the two permanent thermo-couples, (ThTc), must be reduced by a correction factorwhich is proportional to the heat flow transducer output, f (seeEq X2.8). The tempe
44、rature drop across the sample is asfollows:DT 5 Th2 Tc! 2af (X2.18)The analog calculator can be used to compute the C-factor ofthe sample (see Fig. 5):C 5fTh2 Tc! 2af(X2.19)and the gain of the final stage amplifier can be varied to yieldthe correct value on the digital display.X2.1.11 A calibration
45、run must be made first to obtain thecorrect value for a and to adjust the final gain for the properC-factor. The reference sample must have thermocouplesinstalled in grooves in the surface. After these thermocoupleshave been connected to the DT input of the calculator and thecorrection constant a ha
46、s been adjusted to zero (see Fig. 5).The final gain must be adjusted to obtain the correct C-factorof the reference sample. Next, the permanent thermocouplesare connected to the DT channel of the calculator and thecorrection constant a adjusted until the displayed C-value isthe same as before. Subse
47、quent tests on unknown sampleswithout thermocouples yield the correct C-factor directly onthe digital display. Multiplying these C-factors by the corre-sponding sample thickness gives the k for each case.X3. PROPOSAL FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLYX3.1 A method and apparatus has been established for u
48、seas a screening tool which can relate to the relative orders ofthermal conductivity. It is not intended for use in writingspecifications, as it cannot provide reliable results for thethermal conductivity of a material.X3.2 The device referred to is described as a heat-insulatedcopper vessel with a
49、heavy copper plate base, and a receivercontaining a mating copper plug which is also insulated. Whilethe upper plate or vessel and test sample is at a constanttemperature, heat flow through the sample is produced bymeasuring the slowly changing temperature increase of thereceiver with thermocouples. The rate of flow of heat throughthe specimen is proportional to the area and the DT of the facesof the specimen, and inversely proportional to the thickness.This fixture is recommended for use at 100C (212F
