Thermal Conductivity of Particulate Materials: A Summary of Measurements Taken at the Marshall Space Flight Center

摘要

Thermal conductivity measurements of particulate materials in vacuum are presented in summary. Particulate basalt and soda lime glass beads of various size ranges were used as samples. The differentiated line heat source method was used for the measurements. A comprehensive table is shown giving all pertinent experimental conditions. Least-squares curve fits to the data are presented. (Author)
