Thermal Confuctivity Porous Ceramics

The compressive strength could be improved significantly by increasing the sintering temperature.

Thermal confuctivity porous ceramics.

Gas pressure and temperature dependences of thermal conductivity of porous ceramic materials. The thermal resistance of tbcs depends not only on the thermophysical properties of the ceramics but also on their microstructure. Zirconia ceramic foams with porosity of 97 9 has low thermal conductivity of 0 027 0 004 w m k 1 which could be used as thermal insulation and refractory material. Two sets of highly porous materials with different intrinsic thermal conductivity values for the solid skeleton were prepared.

The pore volume fraction was varied from 40 to 75. Zirconia and alumina are generally chosen as tbc top coat material. Ceramics have been developed by doping nitrogen into a sic lattice 7 however their thermal conductivity has not been reported. The electrical resistivity of 100 cm is too high to be machined.

Ceramics with low thermal conductivity e g. In the present study the newly developed porous sic ceramics exhibited a very low thermal conductivity of 0 047 wm 1 k 1 at a high porosity 72 4 that is comparable to the thermal conductivity of sic aerogel 0 049 wm 1 k 1 and even lower than the thermal conductivity 0 068 wm 1 k 1 73 5 porous of a nano sic particle compact without heat treatment. Part 2 refractories and ceramics with porosity exceeding 30 efim litovsky laboratory of transport processes in porous materials faculty of mechanical engineering technion israel institute of technology haifa 32000 israel. Starting with a commercial clay containing 75 kaolinite foams were made by mixing in water and methyl cellulose as a surfactant then beating.

Microstructural characterisation was performed including the determination of the pore size distribution psd. A toolbox of analytical relations is proposed to describe the effective thermal conductivity as a function of solid phase thermal conductivity pore thermal conductivity and pore volume fraction ν p. Thus the reported thermal conductivity and electrical resistivity were 47 270w m k and 100 1011 cm respectively. Porous ceramics were prepared by different methods to achieve pore volume fractions from 4 to 95.
