1、Designation: D 4612 08Standard Practice forCalculating Thermal Diffusivity of Rocks1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4612; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in

2、parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice involves calculation of the thermal diffu-sivity from measured values of the mass density, thermalconductivity, and specific heat

3、at constant pressure. It isapplicable for any materials where these data can be deter-mined. The temperature range covered by this practice is 20 to300C.NOTE 1The diffusivity, as determined by this practice, is intended tobe a volume average value, with the averaging volume being$2 3 105m3(20 cm3).

4、This requirement necessitates the use of specimens withvolumes greater than the minimum averaging volume and precludes use offlash methods of measuring thermal diffusivity, such as the laser pulsetechnique.NOTE 2This practice is closely linked to the overall test procedureused in obtaining the prima

5、ry data on density, specific heat, and conduc-tivity. It cannot be used as a “stand alone” practice because the thermaldiffusivity values calculated by this practice are dependent on the natureof the primary data base. The practice furnishes general guidelines butcannot be considered to be all-inclu

6、sive.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to inch-pound units that are provided for informa-tion only and are not considered standard.1.3 The practice is intended to apply to isotropic samples;that is, sample

7、s in which the thermal transport properties do notdepend on the direction of heat flow. If the thermal conductiv-ity depends on the direction of heat flow, then the diffusivityderived by this practice must be associated with the samedirection as that utilized in the conductivity measurement.1.4 The

8、thermal conductivity, specific heat, and mass den-sity measurements must be made with specimens that are asnear identical in composition and water content as possible.1.5 The generally inhomogeneous nature of geologic forma-tions precludes the unique specification of a thermal diffusivitycharacteriz

9、ing an entire rock formation. Geologic media arehighly variable in character, and it is impossible to specify apractice for diffusivity determination that will be suitable forall possible cases. Some of the most important limitations arisefrom the following factors:1.5.1 Variable MineralogyIf the mi

10、neralogy of the forma-tion under study is highly variable over distances on the sameorder as the size of the sample from which the conductivity,specific heat, and density specimens are cut, then the calculateddiffusivity for a given set of specimens will be dependent onthe precise locations from whi

11、ch these specimens were ob-tained.1.5.2 Variable PorosityThe thermal properties of porousrock are highly dependent on the amount and nature of theporosity. A spatially varying porosity introduces problems of anature similar to those encountered with a spatially varyingcomposition. In addition, the c

12、haracter of the porosity maypreclude complete dehydration by oven drying.1.6 All observed and calculated values shall conform to theguidelines for significant digits and rounding established inPractice D 6026.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated

13、 with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use5.1 The thermal diffusivity is a parameter that arises in thesolution of transient heat conduction problems. It generallycharacterizes the rate at which a heat pulse will di

24、ffuse througha solid material.5.2 The number of parameters required for solution of atransient heat conduction problem depends on both the geom-etry and imposed boundary conditions. In a few special cases,only the thermal diffusivity of the material is required. In mostcases, separate values of k, r

25、, and cpare required in addition toa. This practice provides a consistent set of parameters fornumerical or analytical heat conduction calculations related toheat transport through rocks.5.3 In order to use this practice for determination of thethermal diffusivity, all of the required parameters ( k

26、, r, cp)must be determined under as near identical specimen condi-tions as possible.5.4 The diffusivity determined by this practice can only beused to analyze heat transport in rock under thermal conditionsidentical to those existing for the k, r, and cpmeasurements.NOTE 3Notwithstanding the stateme

27、nts on precision and bias con-tained in this test method; the precision of this test method is dependenton the competence of the personnel performing it, and the suitability of theequipment and facilities used. Agencies that meet the criteria of PracticeD 3740 are generally considered capable of com

28、petent and objectivetesting. Users of this test method are cautioned that compliance withPractice D 3740 does not in itself assure reliable testing. Reliable testingdepends on many factors; Practice D 3740 provides a means of evaluatingsome of these factors.6. Procedure6.1 General:6.1.1 Obtain the d

29、ata for k, r, and cpas a function oftemperature using the appropriateASTM standard for the giventest as qualified below. If possible, make all measurements withspecimens obtained from the same general location in thesample in order to ensure that the specimens are as nearidentical in composition and

30、 morphology as possible.6.1.2 To minimize water content variation among speci-mens, vacuum dry all specimens at 105C until mass loss isconstant to 60.5 %.6.2 Parameter Test Procedures:6.2.1 Measure the specimen density in one of the twofollowing ways:6.2.1.1 Determine the mass of the specimen, ms,on

31、ananalytical balance and the volume, Vs, by measurement ofsample dimensions or by water displacement (immersion). Ifthe volume is measured by immersion, the specimen must beencapsulated in a waterproof flexible container of negligiblevolume compared to the specimen volume. Record the density,as foll

32、ows,r5ms/Vs(1)where:ms= specimen mass, andVs= specimen volume.Also estimate the accuracy of the r determination from theuncertainties associated with the msand Vsmeasurements.6.2.1.2 Measure the specimen bulk specific gravity usingTest Method C 642. In situations where the measurement is tobe made a

33、t temperatures near or above the boiling point ofwater, a suitable oil working fluid may be substituted for waterin this procedure. Determine the density, r, by multiplying thebulk specific gravity by the density of the working fluid at theimmersion temperature.6.2.2 Measure the specimen specific he

Calculations7.1 GeneralThe following method of calculation is rec-ommended for deriving the temperature dependent diffusivity,a(T), from data from k, r, and cp.NOTE 4The recommended data

35、 analysis technique is not intended topreclude the use of other methods of data analysis which may be moreD4612082suitable in certain cases. It does provide a method by which a consistentset of temperature dependent parameters may be derived from the primarydata base, and also a method by which the

36、uncertainties in each parametermay be estimated. The results of the calculations for the temperaturedependent parameters will be in a form which is useful for most thermalanalysis computer programs.7.2 Description of the MethodThe parameter data for anassociated set of specimens will usually be in t

37、he form of tablesgiving the measured parameter value versus the measurementtemperature. Each parameter should be fit to an equation of thefollowing form:gT! 5(n 5 oNcnT 2 To!n(2)where:g = parameter (k, r,or,cp),To= 293 K,T = temperature (K), andN = maximum power used in the fit.7.2.1 The fit shall b

38、e performed using ordinary least squarestechniques.3The value of Nshould be as small as possible,consistent with obtaining a reasonable fit to the data. The resultof this fit will be a set of coefficients, (cn), and the estimatedstandard error in the parameter, given by the following equa-tion:sg$(i

39、 5 1MgTi! 2giTi!#21/2(3)where:M = number of temperatures at whichg is measured, andgi= measured value of the parameter at temperature Ti.NOTE 5In the case of density, a measurement is usually available onlyat room temperature, To. In this situation, take r(T)=r(To), correspondingto co= r(To), cn= 0

40、for n 0. The associated error, sr, is the estimatederror for the single measurement.7.3 Calculate the diffusivity from the curve fit relationdetermined in 7.1 and 7.2 as follows:aT! 5 kT!/rT!cpT!#or aT! 5 kT!/rTo!cpT!#7.4 Fit a(T) to an equation of the form of Eq 2, and calculatesafrom (Eq 3).7.5 Es
