Thermophysical properties of materials

Thermophysical properties study of micro/nano materials

Thermal transport in micro/nano materials is very critical, not only because the thermal property may have important influence on the performance of the materials, but also because the change of this property can reflect the inner structure change. Due to the complicated structure and small scale, the thermal properties of biomaterials, such as silkworm silk, spider silk and human head hair, ar...

Thermophysical Properties of Supercritical Fluids

This article presents a general introduction to the physics and dynamics of supercritical fluids and the critical point. It is organized in two parts: In a first section, the nature of the critical point is discussed and its influence on the properties of supercritical fluids is presented; In a second section, we then examine the dynamic processes induced by these peculiar properties, concentra...

Characterization of the Thermophysical Properties of Riser Sleeve Materials and Analysis of Riser Sleeve Performance

Riser sleeves are an effective tool in the steel foundry industry for minimizing riser size and increasing casting yield. Reliable simulation of the performance of riser sleeves requires accurate temperature dependent thermophysical properties. Unfortunately there is little or no such property data available in the open literature. A limited number of sleeve manufacturers provide advice and pro...
