Finite Element Analysis of Unguarded Hot-Plate Thermal Conductivity Apparatuses

摘要: By utilizing a simple thermal conductivity measuring apparatus with well-defined geometry and by having the ability to model system in detail, accurate values can be determined. We have used unguarded hot-plate systems components of highly contrasting conductivity. This arrangement provides boundary conditions for modeling. Finite element analysis has been as modeling tool two such apparatuses. method was chosen because its easily complex material systems. An outline finite together comparison difference is given paper. adjusting parameters obtain match between calculated measured temperature values, either or both samples It possible this show variation conductivities supposedly similar gneiss.
