Thermal Conductivity and Diffusivity of Engineering Ceramics.
Abstract
This report summarizes the results of a one-year extension of a research program devoted to an investigation of the effect of compositional and microstructural variables on the thermal conductivity/diffusivity and thermal stress resistance of engineering ceramics. A total of six completed studies have resulted during this extension, with a seventh in preparation, as follows: (1) Thermal Diffusivity of Microcracked Ceramic Materials. (2) Thermal Diffusivity and Thermal Conductivity of a Fibrous Alumina. (3) Thermal Diffusivity/Conductivity of Alumina with a Zirconia Dispersed Phase. (4) Effect of Crystallization on the Thermal Diffusivity of a Mica Glass-Ceramic. (5) Effect of Microcracking on the Thermal Diffusivity of Polycrystalline Aluminum Niobate. (6) Enhanced Thermal Stress Resistance of Structural Ceramics with Thermal Conductivity Gradient. (7) Effect of Crystallization on the Thermal Diffusivity of a Cordierite Glass-Ceramic. (Author)
