An experimental study has been done to investigate the heat conduction and moisture distribution through the different layers
of unsaturated soil. The soil is taken in the form of cylindrical columns in vertical and horizontal positions. The two ends
of the cylindrical column were maintained at different constant temperature. The effective thermal conductivity was measured
by dynamical method after achieving steady state. The distribution of moisture in the soil column was determined by gravimetric
technique. The effective thermal conductivity (ETC) has also been predicted by temperature dependent model developed by Singhet al (1988). A close agreement has been found in experimental and predicted values of ETC. 相似文献

A new kinetic theory approach for calculating the thermal conductivity of a dilute polyatomic gas from the intermolecular pair potential is presented. The contributions due to internal degrees of freedom have been separated into a classical rotational and a quantum-mechanical vibrational part. Assuming that the vibrational states of the molecules do not significantly influence the collision trajectories, and that vibrationally inelastic and vibrationally resonant collisions are rare, we have obtained a simple self-diffusion mechanism for the vibrational contribution to the thermal conductivity. For non-polar gases like methane or nitrogen, the new approach yields thermal conductivity values that are very close to those obtained with the previously used kinetic theory approach. However, for polar gases like hydrogen sulphide and water vapour, the values obtained with the new scheme are much closer to the most accurate experimental data. 相似文献

In this Letter, the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) has been used to evaluate the efficiency of straight fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and to determine the temperature distribution within the fin. The fin efficiency of the straight fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity has been obtained as a function of thermo-geometric fin parameter and the thermal conductivity parameter describing the variation of the thermal conductivity. The results reveal that homotopy perturbation method is very effective and simple. The resulting correlation equations can assist thermal design engineers for designing of straight fins with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. 相似文献

A model for predicting the effective thermal conductivity of nanofluids is proposed. It has been documented that the interfacial layer at the solid (particle)/liquid interface and particle size is one of the major mechanisms for enhancing the thermal conductivity of nanofluids. Comparing with other classical models, the proposed model takes into account some additional effects including volume fraction, thickness, thermal conductivity of the interfacial layer and particle size. The proposed model is found to be better than the existing models since the predicted effective thermal conductivity of different types of nanofluids are closer to the experimental results. 相似文献

1引言固体吸附式热泵是一种以热能为动力的能量转换装置,在强调环境保护,避免破坏臭氧层的当前,吸附式热泵作为一种替代氯氟烃的制冷供热系统,吸引了众多的研究者。但在研究进程中,各国研究者们遇到的共同问题是其固体吸附床传热传质速度太慢,从而引起吸附式热泵循环周期长,能量转换效率低。造成这种现象的主要原因是目前吸附床所采用的粉末多孔无机介质(沸石)的导热系数较低。为提高吸附剂的导热性能,意大利Cacciola[1]等人在吸附剂颗粒中加入铝粉或铁粉,但由于是物理混合,加入量较小,不能形成高导热的连续相,总… 相似文献

This article provides critical examinations of two mathematical models that have been developed in recent years to describe
the impact of nano-layering on the enhancement of the effective thermal conductivity of nanofluids. Discrepancy between the
two models is found to be an artefact of an incorrect derivation used in one of the models. With correct formulation, both
models predict effective thermal conductivity enhancements that are not significantly greater than those predicted by classical
Maxwell theory. This study indicates that nano-layering by itself is unable to account for the effective thermal conductivity
enhancements observed in nanofluids. 相似文献

The effective thermal conductivity of sandstone at high pressures of up to 400 MPa and temperatures of 273–523 K has been studied. It has been shown that the degree of crystallization of rock-forming minerals substantially influences the temperature and pressure dependences of the thermal conductivity. The contribution of the radiation heat transfer in measurements of the thermal conductivity of sandstone at various temperatures has been analyzed taking into account the reflection and attenuation of the thermal radiation. The results of measuring the reflection and absorption spectra of the thermal radiation have been presented. 相似文献

Manipulating thermal conductivities are fundamentally important for controlling the conduction of heat at will. Thermal cloaks and concentrators, which have been extensively studied recently, are actually graded materials designed according to coordinate transformation approaches, and their effective thermal conductivity is equal to that of the host medium outside the cloak or concentrator. Here we attempt to investigate a more general problem: what is the effective thermal conductivity of graded materials? In particular, we perform a first-principles approach to the analytic exact results of effective thermal conductivities of materials possessing either power-law or linear gradation profiles. On the other hand, by solving Laplace's equation, we derive a differential equation for calculating the effective thermal conductivity of a material whose thermal conductivity varies along the radius with arbitrary gradation profiles.The two methods agree with each other for both external and internal heat sources, as confirmed by simulation and experiment. This work provides different methods for designing new thermal metamaterials(including thermal cloaks and concentrators), in order to control or manipulate the transfer of heat. 相似文献

The recent theoretical one-dimensional models display invariably anomalous thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity of several low-dimensional crystalline systems has been investigated using our new techniques. The results show that for most of the measured materials in the high temperature range the thermal conductivity is composed of two extremes: a low- and a high-conductive state. The effective thermal conductivity jumps abruptly between these two states giving rise to apparent discontinuities or “spikes”. 相似文献

Nanofluids or liquids with suspended nanoparticles are likely to be
the future heat transfer media, as they exhibit higher thermal
conductivity than those of liquids. It has been proposed that
nanoparticles are apt to congregate and form clusters, and hence the
interaction between nanoparticles becomes important. In this paper,
by taking into account the interaction between nearest-neighbour
inclusions, we adopt the multiple image method to investigate the
effective thermal conductivity of nanofluids. Numerical results show
that then the thermal conductivity ratio between the nanoparticles
and fluids is large, and the two nanoparticles are close up and even
touch, and the point-dipole theory such as Maxwell--Garnett theory
becomes rough as many-body interactions are neglected. Our theoretical
