  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. Time-domain thermoreflectance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-domain_thermoreflectance

    Here, Λ is the thermal conductivity of the solid, D is the thermal diffusivity of the solid, and r is the radial coordinate. In a typical time-domain thermoreflectance experiment, the co-aligned laser beams have cylindrical symmetry, therefore the Hankel transform can be used to simplify the computation of the convolution of the equation with ...

  5. 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. Thermal conductivity measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity...

    The heat generated dissipates into the sample on both sides of the sensor, at a rate depending on the thermal transport properties of the material. By recording temperature vs. time response in the sensor, the thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity and specific heat capacity of the material can be calculated.

  7. Darken's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darken's_equations

    Knowing the diffusion coefficients is necessary for predicting the flux of atoms between the two materials, which can then be used in numerical models of the diffusion bonding process, as, for example, was looked at in the paper by Orhan, Aksoy, and Eroglu when creating a model to determine the amount of time required to create a diffusion bond ...

  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 ...
