Measurements of the Thermal Conductivity of Reference Liquids Using a Modified Transient Hot-wire Needle Probe

Many power generation processes feature some type of working fluid that plays a critical role in the transfer of heat throughout the system. To optimize thermal efficiencies, an accurate characterization of the temperature-dependent thermal conductivity of the fluid is needed. This study develops a time-domain Modified Transient Hot-wire Needle Probe to overcome phenomena that have […]
