Thermal Conductivity and Diffusivity of Engineering Ceramics.
Abstract
This report summarizes the results of a one-year research program devoted to an investigation of the effect of compositional and microstructural variables on the thermal conductivity/diffusivity of engineering ceramics. Particular emphasis was placed on studies of thermal transport phenomena in composite materials. A total of six completed studies have resulted during this program, with another four in progress, as follows: (1) Effect of Crystallization on the Thermal Diffusivity of a Cordierite Glass-Ceramic. (2) Thermal Diffusivity of Ba/Mica/Alumina Composites. (3) Thermal Diffusivity of Al2O3 with Dispersed Monoclinic and Tetragonal ZrO2 particles. (4) Effect of thermal Expansion Mismatch on the Thermal Diffusivity of Glass-Ni Composites. (5) Simple Laser Pulse Calorimeter. (6) Thermal Diffusivity/Conductivity of Dense Magnesia/Magnesia-Alumina Spinel Ceramic. (7) Thermal Diffusivity of Al2O3/SiC Composites. (8) Thermal Diffusivity of MgO/SiC Composites. (9) Thermal Diffusivity of Al2O3/TiC Composites. (10) Thermal Diffusivity of a Partially Electronic Conducting Ceramic: Yttrium Chromites. (Author)
