Summary of Test Method4.1 A specimen and a heat flux transducer (HFT) aresandwiched between two flat plates controlled at differenttemperatures, to produce a heat flow

16、 through the test stack. Areproducible load is applied to the test stack by pneumatic orhydraulic means, to ensure that there is a reproducible contactresistance between the specimen and plate surfaces. A cylin-drical guard surrounds the test stack and is maintained at auniform mean temperature of t

17、he two plates, in order tominimize lateral heat flow to and from the stack. At steady-state, the difference in temperature between the surfacescontacting the specimen is measured with temperature sensorsembedded in the surfaces, together with the electrical output ofthe HFT. This output (voltage) is

18、 proportional to the heat flowthrough the specimen, the HFT and the interfaces between thespecimen and the apparatus. The proportionality is obtainedthrough prior calibration of the system with specimens ofknown thermal resistance measured under the same conditions,such that contact resistance at th

19、e surface is made reproducible.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is designed to measure and comparethermal properties of materials under controlled conditions andtheir ability to maintain required thermal conductance levels.6. Apparatus6.1 Aschematic rendering of a typical apparatus is sho

20、wn inFig. 1. The relative position of the HFT to sample is notimportant (it may be on the hot or cold side) as the test methodis based on maintaining axial heat flow with minimal heatlosses or gains radially. It is also up to the designer whether tochoose heat flow upward or downward or horizontally

21、, al-though downward heat flow in a vertical stack is the mostcommon one.6.2 Key Components of a Typical Device:6.2.1 The compressive force for the stack is to be providedby either a regulated pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder (1) or aspring loaded mechanism. In either case, means must beprovided to e

22、nsure that the loading can be varied and set tocertain values reproducibility.6.2.2 The loading force must be transmitted to the stackthrough a gimball joint (2) that allows up to 5 swivel in theplane perpendicular to the axis of the stack.6.2.3 Suitable insulator plate (3) separates the gimball joi

23、ntfrom the top plate (4).6.2.4 The top plate (assumed to be the hot plate for thepurposes of this description) is equipped with a heater (5) andcontrol thermocouple (6) adjacent to the heater, to maintain acertain desired temperature. (Other means of producing andmaintaining temperature may also be

24、used as long as therequirements under 6.3 are met.) The construction of the topplate is such as to ensure uniform heat distribution across itsface contacting the sample (8). Attached to this face (orembedded in close proximity to it), in a fashion that does notinterfere with the sample/plate interfa

25、ce, is a temperaturesensor (7) (typically a thermocouple, thermistor) that definesthe temperature of the interface on the plate side.6.2.5 The sample (8) is in direct contact with the top plateon one side and an intermediate plate (9) on the other side.6.2.6 The intermediate plate (9) is an optional

26、 item. Itspurpose is to provide a highly conductive environment to theFIG. 1 Key Components of a Typical DeviceD6744062second temperature sensor (10), to obtain an average tempera-ture of the surface. If the temperature sensor (10) is embeddedinto the face of the HFT, or other means are provided to

27、definethe temperature of the surface facing the sample, the use of theintermediate plate is not mandatory.6.2.7 Heat flux transducer (HFT) is a device that willgenerate an electrical signal in proportion to the heat fluxacross it. The level of output required (sensitivity) greatlydepends on the rest

28、 of the instrumentation used to read it. Theoverall performance of the HFTand its readout instrumentationshall be such as to meet the requirements in Section 13.6.2.8 The lower plate (12) is constructed similarly to theupper plate (4), except it is positioned as a mirror image.6.2.9 An insulator pla

29、te (16) separates the lower plate (12)from the heat sink (17). In case of using circulating fluid inplace of a heater/thermocouple arrangement in the upper and/orlower plates, the heat sink may or may not be present.6.2.10 The entire stack is surrounded by a cylindrical guard(18) equipped with a hea

30、ter (19) and a control thermocouple(20) to maintain it at the mean temperature between the upperand lower plates. A small, generally unfilled gap separates theguard from the stack. For instruments limited to operate in theambient region, no guard is required. A draft shield is recom-mended in place

31、of it.NOTE 2It is permissible to use thin layers of high conductivity greaseor elastomeric material on the two surfaces of the sample to reduce thethermal resistance of the interface and promote uniform thermal contactacross the interface area.NOTE 3The cross sectional area of the sample may be any,

32、 however,most commonly circular and rectangular cross sections are used. Mini-mum size is dictated by the magnitude of the disturbance caused bythermal sensors in relation to the overall flux distribution. The mostcommon sizes are 25 mm round or square to 50 mm round.6.3 Requirements:6.3.1 Temperatu

33、re control of upper and lower plate is to be6 0.1 C (6 0.18 F) or better.6.3.2 Reproducible load of 0.28 MPa (40 psi) has beenfound to be satisfactory for solid samples. Minimum load shallnot be below 0.07 MPa (10 psi).6.3.3 Temperature sensors are usually fine gage or smalldiameter sheath thermocou

34、ples, however, ultraminiature resis-tance thermometers and linear thermistors may also be used.6.3.4 Operating range of a device using a mean temperatureguard shall be limited to 100 C to 300 C, when usingthermocouples as temperature sensors, and 180 C to 300 Cwith platinum resistance thermometers.7

35、. Test Specimen7.1 The specimen to be tested shall be representative for thesample material. The recommended specimen configuration isa 50.8 6 0.25 mm (2 6 0.010 in.) diameter disk, havingsmooth flat and parallel faces, 6 0.025 mm (6 0.001 in.), suchthat a uniform thickness within 0.025 mm (6 0.001

36、in.) isattained in the range from 12.7 to 25.4 mm (0.5 to 1.0 in.)8. Sampling and Conditioning8.1 Cut representative test specimens from larger pieces ofthe sample material or body.8.2 Condition the cut specimens in accordance with therequirements of the appropriate material specifications, if any.9

37、. Calibration9.1 Select the mean temperature and load conditions re-quired. Adjust the upper heater temperature (Tu) and lowerheater temperature (Tl) such that the temperature difference atthe required mean temperature is no less than 30 to 35 C andthe specimen DT is not less than 3 C. Adjust the gu

38、ard heatertemperature (Tg) such that it is at approximately the average ofTuand Tl.9.2 Select at least two calibration specimens having thermalresistance values that bracket the range expected for the testspecimens at the temperature conditions required.9.3 Table 1 contains a list of several availab

39、le materialscommonly used for calibration, together with correspondingthermal resistance (Rs) values for a given thickness. Thisinformation is provided to assist the user in selecting optimumspecimen thickness for testing a material and in deciding whichcalibration specimens to use.9.4 The range of

40、thermal conductivity for which this testmethod is most suitable is such that the optimum thermalresistance range is from 10 3 104to 400 3 104m2K/W.The most commonly used calibration materials are the Pyrex7740, Pyroceram 9606, and stainless steel.9.5 Measure the thickness of the specimen to 25 m.9.6

41、 Coat both surfaces of a calibration specimen with a verythin layer of a compatible heat sink compound or place a thinlayer of elastomeric heat transfer medium on it to helpminimize the thermal resistance at the interfaces of adjacentcontacting surfaces.9.7 Insert the calibration specimen into the t

42、est chamber.Exercise care to ensure that all surfaces are free of any foreignmatter.9.8 Close the test chamber and clamp the calibration speci-men in position between the plates at the recommendedcompressive load of 0.28 MPa.9.9 Wait for thermal equilibrium to be attained. This shouldbe seen when al

43、l the temperatures measured do not drift morethan 0.1 C in 1 min. Read and record all temperatures and theoutput of the heat flux transducer.NOTE 4The time to attain thermal equilibrium is dependent upon theTABLE 1 Typical Thermal Resistance Values of Specimens ofDifferent MaterialsMaterial Approxim
