43、N THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY TESTERA1.1 Selection and Preparation of SampleA1.1.1 The standard sample of fibrous insulation requiresthat new material be available to make a pad 1312 by9by2in.(343 by 229 by 51 mm) thick. The 9 by 1312-in. dimension isusually obtainable in blanket materials. As blankets are
44、 avail-able in several thicknesses, it is often necessary to cut severalpieces of blanket 9 by 1312-in. that can be placed one upon theother to make the 2-in. thickness. The selection of theseindividual blankets shall be made to provide as uniform adensity as possible in each of the individual blank
45、et layers andan individual density as close to the ultimate overall sampledensity as possible. If the blanket is thin enough or of a lowenough density, the layers are to be held over a light box todetect any abnormal variation in density.A1.1.2 The precise cutting of the blanket to size is facili-ta
46、ted by the use of a heavy cardboard or thin sheet steel patterncut square to 9 by 1312-in. (229 by 343 mm). A butcher knifeproduces a good cut.A1.1.3 After cutting to the 9 by 1312-in. (229 by 343-mm)size, the individual blankets are weighed and the densitydetermined. Since the thicknesses of the bl
47、ankets vary, it maybe necessary to compress the assembled layers before instal-lation in the tester so that the assembly is 2 in. (51 mm) thick.This is done by placing a steel plate on top of the sample andloading it to compress the sample to 2 in. The maximumcompression allowed is 15 %.A1.2 Prepara
48、tion of TesterA1.2.1 In order to accurately measure the surface tempera-ture of the calorimeter, a thin-foil thermocouple is applied tothe center of the calorimeter surface. The foil thermocoupleshall be 0.0005 in. (0.0127 mm) or less and may be Type J, K,T, or E. The thermocouple shall be bonded to
49、 an electricallyinsulating matrix 0.003 in. (0.0762 mm) thick or less.The leadsshall be electrically insulated and of sufficient length to exit theapparatus without an internal junction. The thermocouple shallbe held on the surface by a thin layer of adhesive, such asdouble-back tape. After the thermocouple is in place, thesurface shall be painted with a high-emittance coating with anemittance of 0.9 or higher.A1.2.2 The 9 by 1312-in.
