열전도도와 열확산도는 재료 또는 구성요소의 열 전달 특성에 대한 가장 중요한 열물리적 매개 변수입니다. 레이저 플래시 기술(LFA)는 열확산도와 같은 열물리적 특성의 정확한 측정을 위해 신속하고 정확한 절대 방법으로 입증되었습니다. 네취는 재료 및 온도 등의 다양한 스펙트럼을 포함한 4가지의 LFA 모델을 제공합니다.

절대 측정 방법에 기반한 GHP 456 Titan®은 단열재의 열전도도 측정 시 이상적인 분석 장비 입니다.

그 외에 열물성으로서의 열전도도는 절연체에 대한 플레이트 방법을 사용하는 열 유량계(HFM)을 통하여 측정됩니다.

NETZSCH 장비는 기기와 애플리케이션에 대한 각각의 기준을 만족합니다: LFA (ex. ASTM E1461, DIN EN 821), HFM (ex. ASTM C518, ISO 8301, DIN EN 12667 EN 12, JIS A 1412, DIN EN 12664) GHP (ex. ISO 8302, ASTM C177, DIN EN 12939, DIN EN 12667, DIN EN 13163)

Principle of the LFA Method

The laser or light flash method is used for measurement of the Thermal DiffusivityThermal diffusivity (a with the unit mm2/s) is a material-specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction. This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.thermal diffusivity of a variety of different materials.

The front surface of a plane-parallel sample is heated by a light pulse and the resulting temperature rise at the sample’s rear face is recorded as a function of time. The higher the Thermal DiffusivityThermal diffusivity (a with the unit mm2/s) is a material-specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction. This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.thermal diffusivity, the faster the temperature rise reaches the rear face.

In a one-dimensional, the Thermal DiffusivityThermal diffusivity (a with the unit mm2/s) is a material-specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction. This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.thermal diffusivity rise is calculated from this temperature rise as follows:

With all NETZSCH laser flash apparatuses (LFAs), the Thermal DiffusivityThermal diffusivity (a with the unit mm2/s) is a material-specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction. This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.thermal diffusivity and Specific Heat Capacity (cp)Heat capacity is a material-specific physical quantity, determined by the amount of heat supplied to specimen, divided by the resulting temperature increase. The specific heat capacity is related to a unit mass of the specimen.specific heat capacity can be determined. This data is then used for calculation of the Thermal ConductivityThermal conductivity (λ with the unit W/(m•K)) describes the transport of energy – in the form of heat – through a body of mass as the result of a temperature gradient (see fig. 1).

Determination of Thermal Diffusivity and Thermal Conductivity

For the precise measurement of Thermal DiffusivityThermal diffusivity (a with the unit mm2/s) is a material-specific property for characterizing unsteady heat conduction. This value describes how quickly a material reacts to a change in temperature.thermal diffusivity a or conductivity (λ), the flash method has established itself as a rapid, versatile and precise measuring method. NETZSCH offers a total of four models (LFA 467 HyperFlash®, LFA 457 MicroFlash®, LFA 467 HyperFlash® HT and LFA 427), which cover the total a broad spectrum of materials and temperature ranges.

The Thermal ConductivityThermal conductivity (λ with the unit W/(m•K)) describes the transport of energy – in the form of heat – through a body of mass as the result of a temperature gradient (see fig. 1). According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat always flows in the direction of the lower temperature.thermal conductivity (λ) of insulation materials can be determined directly with plate instrumentation (HFM = Heat Flow Meter or GHP = Guarded Hot Plate): Included here are the HFM 446 Lambda with its new, expanded measurement capabilities and the GHP 456 Titan® guarded hot plate, which is an absolute method and thus requires no calibration.

The instruments listed above operate in accordance with relevant instrument and usage norms. Specifically, these include:

  • For LFA: ASTM E1461, DIN EN 821-2, ISO 22007-4, ISO 18755
  • For HFM: ASTM C518, ISO 8301, DIN EN 12667, JIS A 1412
  • For GHP: ISO 8302, ASTM C177, DIN EN 12939, DIN EN 12667, DIN EN 13163
     

For the measurement of particularly thin films we offer the PicoTR/NanoTR Time Domain Reflectance method.
