| Abstract: | The thermal conductivity of
organic foams at varying temperatures (-20 to 30°C) and interstitial air
pressures has been measured using thermal probe method. Experiment has been
conducted on different cell sizes of organic foam samples covering a vide range
of porosities. Results show that the effective thermal conductivity decreases
with increasing porosity and increases by increasing temperature and
interstitial air pressure values. Data obtained from the experiment has been compared
with the reported model and found good agreement between experimental and
theoretical results at room temperature and normal pressure. |
