The thermal conductivity of water- and ethylene glycol-based nanofluids containing alumina $(Al_2O_3)$, zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide $(TiO_2)$ nanoparticles is measured by varying the particle diameter and volume fraction. The transient hot-wire method using an anodized tantalum wire for electrical insulation is employed for the measurement. The experimental results show that nanofluids have substantially higher thermal conductivities than those of the base fluid and the ratio of thermal conductivity enhancement increases linearly with the volume fraction. It has been found that the ratio of thermal conductivity enhancement increases with decreasing particle size but no empirical or theoretical correlation can explain the particle-size dependence of the thermal conductivity. This work provides, for the first time to our knowledge, a set of consistent experimental data over a wide range of nanofluid conditions and can therefore serve as a basis for developing theoretical models to predict thermal conduction phenomena in nanofluids.

The effective thermal conductivities of $Mm(La_{0.6-0.8})Ni_{4.0}Co_{0.6}Mn_{0.2}Al_{0.2}$ [TL-492] with hydrogen and helium have been examined. Experiment results show that pressure has great influence on effective thermal conductivity in low pressure range [below 0.5 MPa]. And that influence decreases rapidly with increase of gas pressure. The reason is at low pressure, the mean free path of gas becomes greater than effective thickness of gas film which is important to the heat transfer mechanism in this research. And, carbon fibers have been used to try to enhance the poor thermal conductivity of TL-492. Three types of carbon fibers and three mass fractions have been examined and compared. Naturally, the highest effective thermal conductivity has been reached with carbon fiber which has highest thermal conductivity, and highest mass fraction. This method has acquired 4.33 times higher thermal conductivity than pure metal hydrides with quite low quantity of additives, only 0.99 wt% of carbon fiber. This is a good result comparing to other method which can reach higher effective thermal conductivity but needs much higher mass fraction of additives too.

The present article investigates experimentally and theoretically thermal and optical characteristics of thin film structures through measurement of thermal conductivity of Pyrex 7740 and reflectance in silicon thin film. The $3{\omega}$ method is used to measure thermal conductivity of very thin film with high accuracy and the optical characteristics in thin films are studied to examine the influence of incidence angle of light on reflectance by using the CTM(Characteristics Transmission Method) and the 633 nm He-Ne laser reflectance measurement system. It is found that the estimated reflectance of silicon show good agreement with experimental data. In particular, the present study solves the EPRT(Equation of Phonon Radiative Transport) which is based on Boltzmann transport equation for predicting thermal conductivity of nanoscale film structures. From the results, the measured thermal conductivity is in good agreement with the previous published data. Moreover, thermal conductivities are estimated for different film thickness. It indicates that as film thickness decreases, thermal conductivity decreases substantially due to internal scattering.

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of the morphology of CNT (Carbon Nanotube) on the thermal conductivity of suspensions. The effective thermal conductivities of the samples were measured using a steady-state cut bar apparatus method. Enhancements based on the thermal conductivity of the base fluid are presented as functions of both the volume fraction and the temperature. Although functionalized SWNT (Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube) produced more stable and homogeneous suspensions, the addition of small amounts of surfactant to suspensions of 'as produced' SWNT demonstrated a greater increase in effective thermal conductivity than functionalized SWNT alone. The effective thermal conductivity enhancement corresponding to 1.0% by volume approached 10%, which was observed to be lower than expected, but more than twice the values, 3.5%, obtained for similar tests conducted using aluminum oxide suspensions. However, for suspensions of MWNT (Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube), the degree of enhancement was measured to be approximately 37%. It was postulated that the effect of clustering, resulting from the multiple heat-flow passages constituted by interconnecting neighboring CNT clusters, played an important role in significant enhancement of effective thermal conductivity.

본 연구에서는 철도노반에서의 동결융해로 인한 피해를 줄이고자 뛰어난 단열효과와 강도를 가진 XPS(eXtruded PolyStyrene)와 PE골재(polyethylene aggregates)를 사용하여 동상을 억제하는 방법을 연구하고자 대형동토실에서 모형시험을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 노반과 PE골재의 혼입비율을 변화시켜 건조밀도와 함수비, 온도에 따른 열전도율을 측정하였다. 시험결과 노반에 혼입된 PE골재 비율에 비례하여 단열효과가 증가하였지만, 간극의 함수비와 온도변화에 민감하였다. 또한 철도노반을 모사한 모형시험에서 각 단열재의 두께와 설치순서를 다르게 한 후 단열효과를 비교 결과, XPS의 단열효과가 우수한 것으로 나타났으며 XPS판자가 상부, PE골재가 하부에 설치될 때 그 반대의 경우보다 단열효과가 뛰어난 것으로 나타났다.

이 연구에서는 무령왕릉에 사용된 전돌의 재료 특성에 관하여 고찰하였다. 압축 강도, 열전도도, 흡수율 등의 재료 특성은 비파괴 실험으로 측정하였다. 그 중에서 무령왕릉 전돌의 압축강도는 초음파 측정법과 흡수율을 이용하여 추정하였다. 실험 결과, 초음파 속도를 이용한 압축강도는 표면이 고르지 못하고 두께 편차가 큰 문화재 시편 특성상 표준편차가 크게 나타났다. 그러나 흡수율을 적용한 압축강도 값 (28.69 MPa ~ 33.19 MPa)은 일반 콘크리트의 압축강도 수준으로 편차가 낮게 나타났다. 따라서 초음파 속도를 이용하는 방법보다 흡수율을 이용하는 방법이 무령왕릉 전돌의 압축강도 예측법으로 보다 적합한 것으로 판단된다. 무령왕릉 전돌의 열전도도는 시료의 표면상태와 두께에 영향을 받지 않는 Mathis TCi를 이용하여 측정하였으며, 평균 1.58 W/mK로 흙에 근접한 값을 지닌다. 무령왕릉 전돌의 흡수율과 수분 잔류율은 각각 1.6 % ~ 15 %, 0 % ~ 0.7 %의 범위를 나타냈다.

질화붕소(BN)는 높은 열전도도를 가지는 2D 형상의 부도체로 복합재료의 강화 필러로 연구되고 있는 물질이다. 본 연구에서는 판상의 육방정 질화붕소(h-BN)를 탄소섬유 다발 사이에 첨가하여 BN이 함유된 탄소섬유강화 복합소재(CFRPs)를 제조하여 BN 필러가 CFRP의 여러 물성에 어떤 영향을 주는지 탐구하였다. 사용된 프리프레그의 수지 총량의 0-15 wt%의 BN 필러가 프리프레그 층 사이에 첨가되었다. BN 필러가 첨가된 복합소재의 인장강도는 최대 13.6%, 계면간 전단응력은 최대 6.7% 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. BN 첨가량에 따른 열전도도와 전기전도도의 변화와, BN의 첨가량에 따른 시편의 단면 형상 변화 또한 관찰되어 탄소섬유-BN-에폭시 복합소재의 물성 제어 가능성을 제시하였다.

열전도도가 유사한 입자형 필러인 silicon carbide (SiC)와 섬유형 필러인 carbon fiber (CF)를 polyetheretherketone (PEEK) 고분자에 첨가하여 복합재료의 열확산도에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 전자현미경을 통해 얻은 단면사진으로부터 SiC와 CF가 PEEK 매트릭스 안에 균일하게 분산되어 있고 필러들이 부분적으로 서로 네트워크를 형성한 것을 관찰하였다. 레이저 섬광법을 이용하여 상온에서 $200^{\circ}C$까지 PEEK/SiC와 PEEK/CF 복합재료의 열확산도를 측정하였으며, 열확산도는 온도가 상승함에 따라 PEEK-필러와 필러-필러 계면에서의 포논산란 증가에 의하여 감소하였다. 필러함량이 증가함에 따라 복합재료의 열확산도가 증가하였으며, 2상계에 대하여 유도된 Maxwell 및 Nielson 예측식을 실험값과 비교함으로써 매트릭스 내의 필러 분포, 방향성, 종횡비 및 필러간의 상호작용 등을 유추할 수 있었다. Nielson 예측식은 PEEK/SiC 복합재료에 대하여 열전도도를 잘 예측하였다. 입자형 필러인 SiC에 비하여 섬유형 필러인 탄소섬유가 동일한 함량에서 열확산에 기여하는 필러 네트워크를 효과적으로 형성하여 높은 열확산도를 가지는 것으로 추정된다.

The relative contributions of phonon and electron to the thermal conductivity of silicon film with varying doping density are evaluated from the modified electron-phonon interaction model, which is applicable to the micro/nanoscale simulation of energy transport between energy carriers. The thermal conductivities of intrinsic silicon layer thicknesses from 20 nm to 500 nm are calculated and extended to the variation in n-type doping densities from 1.0 ${\times}$ $10^{18}$ to 5.0 ${\times}$ $10^{20}$ $cm^{-3}$, which agree well with the experimental data and theoretical model. From simulation results, the phonon and electron contributions to thermal conductivity are extracted. The electron contribution in the silicon is found to be not negligible above $10^{19}$ $cm^{-3}$, which can be classified as semimetal or metal by the value of its electrical resistivity at room temperature. The thermal conductivity due to electron is about 57.2% of the total thermal conductivity at doping concentration 5.0 ${\times}$ $10^{20}$ $cm^{-3}$ and silicon film thickness 100 nm.
