  2. Thermal diffusivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_diffusivity

    Thermal diffusivity is a contrasting measure to thermal effusivity. [6] [7] In a substance with high thermal diffusivity, heat moves rapidly through it because the substance conducts heat quickly relative to its volumetric heat capacity or 'thermal bulk'. Thermal diffusivity is often measured with the flash method.

  3. Laser flash analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Flash_Analysis

    The higher the thermal diffusivity of the sample, the faster the energy reaches the backside. A laser flash apparatus (LFA) to measure thermal diffusivity over a broad temperature range, is shown on the right hand side. In a one-dimensional, adiabatic case the thermal diffusivity is calculated from this temperature rise as follows:

  4. Thermogravimetric analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermogravimetric_analysis

    Thermogravimetric analysis or thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) is a method of thermal analysis in which the mass of a sample is measured over time as the temperature changes. . This measurement provides information about physical phenomena, such as phase transitions, absorption, adsorption and desorption; as well as chemical phenomena including chemisorptions, thermal decomposition, and ...

  6. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    A direct practical application of the heat equation, in conjunction with Fourier theory, in spherical coordinates, is the prediction of thermal transfer profiles and the measurement of the thermal diffusivity in polymers (Unsworth and Duarte). This dual theoretical-experimental method is applicable to rubber, various other polymeric materials ...

    These thermal greases have low electrical conductivity and their volume resistivities are 1.5⋅10 15, 1.8⋅10 11, and 9.9⋅10 9 Ω⋅cm for 860, 8616 and 8617 respectively. The thermal grease 860 is a silicone oil with a Zinc Oxide filler and 8616 and 8617 are synthetic oils with various fillers including Aluminum Oxide and Boron Nitride.

  8. Schmidt number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmidt_number

    D is the mass diffusivity (m 2 /s). μ is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid (Pa·s = N·s/m 2 = kg/m·s) ρ is the density of the fluid (kg/m 3) Pe is the Peclet Number; Re is the Reynolds Number. The heat transfer analog of the Schmidt number is the Prandtl number (Pr). The ratio of thermal diffusivity to mass diffusivity is the Lewis number ...

  9. Diffusivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusivity

    Diffusivity is a rate of diffusion, a measure of the rate at which particles or heat or fluids can spread. It is measured differently for different mediums. Diffusivity may refer to: Thermal diffusivity, diffusivity of heat; Diffusivity of mass: Mass diffusivity, molecular diffusivity (often called "diffusion coefficient")
