THERMAL TRANSPORT IN BUILDING MATERIALS. TRANSIENT PLANE SOURCE SENSORS.

Author(s) : GUSTAFSSON S. E., KARAWACKI E.

Type of article: Periodical article

Summary

REPORTS ON THE RECENT DEVELOPMENT OF TWO TYPES OF TRANSIENT PLANE SOURCE (TPS) SENSORS FOR STUDYING THE THERMAL TRANSPORT PROPERTIES OF SOLIDS. IN SUCH A SENSOR A RESISTIVE PATTERN CUT OUT FROM A THIN SHEET OF METAL AND COVERED ON BOTH SIDES WITH THIN LAYERS OF AN INSULATING MATERIAL IS USED BOTH AS A HEAT SOURCE AND AS A TEMPERATURE DETECTOR. THE THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY, THERMAL DIFFUSIVITY AND THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF THE STUDIED MATERIAL CAN BE OBTAINED FROM A SINGLE EXPERIMENTAL THERMOGRM TPS SENSORS ARE DESIGNED FOR BOTH LABORATORY AND IN-SITU MEASUREMENTS. DERIVES THE WORKING EQUATIONS FOR 2 DIFFERENT TYPES OF TPS SENSORS (HOT SQUARE AND HOT DISC SENSORS), DESCRIBES THE EXPERIMENTAL DETAILS AND PRESENTS DATA-EVALUATION PROCEDURES. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 26, N 4, 1991/07-08, 91-01295.
