  2. Perm (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(unit)

    A variant of the metric perm is used in DIN Standard 53122, where permeance is also expressed in grams per square meter per day, but at a fixed, "standard" vapor-pressure difference of 17.918 mmHg. This unit is thus 17.918 times smaller than a metric perm, corresponding to about 0.084683 of a U.S. perm.

  3. 3ω-method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3ω-method

    The main advantages of the 3ω-method are minimization of radiation effects and easier acquisition of the temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity than in the steady-state techniques. Although some expertise in thin film patterning and microlithography is required, this technique is considered as the best pseudo-contact method available.

  4. Thermal conductivity measurement - Wikipedia

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

    The transient hot wire method (THW) is a very popular, accurate and precise technique to measure the thermal conductivity of gases, liquids, [3] solids, [4] nanofluids [5] and refrigerants [6] in a wide temperature and pressure range. The technique is based on recording the transient temperature rise of a thin vertical metal wire with infinite ...

  5. Sheet vinyl flooring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_vinyl_flooring

    Its escape into the environment is a concern. Other ingredients in vinyl flooring vary widely, and some are harmful. The thickness of the sheet and the wear layer determines the durability of the floor; unlike linoleum, vinyl flooring is usually not homogeneous, and once it wears through the print layer, it will be obviously damaged.

  6. Thermal boundary layer thickness and shape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_boundary_layer...

    A relatively new method [7] [8] for describing the thickness and shape of the thermal boundary layer utilizes the moment method commonly used to describe a random variable's probability distribution. The moment method was developed from the observation that the plot of the second derivative of the thermal profile for laminar flow over a plate ...

  7. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    In physics, thermal contact conductance is the study of heat conduction between solid or liquid bodies in thermal contact. The thermal contact conductance coefficient , h c {\displaystyle h_{c}} , is a property indicating the thermal conductivity , or ability to conduct heat , between two bodies in contact.

  8. Thermal conductivity and resistivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity_and...

    The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its ability to conduct heat.It is commonly denoted by , , or and is measured in W·m −1 ·K −1.. Heat transfer occurs at a lower rate in materials of low thermal conductivity than in materials of high thermal conductivity.

  9. Thermal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_analysis

    Polymers represent another large area in which thermal analysis finds strong applications. Thermoplastic polymers are commonly found in everyday packaging and household items, but for the analysis of the raw materials, effects of the many additive used (including stabilisers and colours) and fine-tuning of the moulding or extrusion processing used can be achieved by using differential scanning ...
