Specific Heat of Carbon/Carbon Composites.

Abstract

The specific heat of a fine weave and of a course weave carbon/carbon composite was measured from 340 to 750 K and compared to the values obtained on a POCO graphite. These results, added to previously obtained results at higher temperatures measured at NBS show that the specific heat of carbon/carbon composites is equal (within 1%) of that of graphite above 340 K. These results are valuable as they permit conversion of thermal diffusivity data to thermal conductivity results. (Author)
