New Test Method for Test Method for Thermal Effusivity by the Transient Plane Source Method
1. Scope
Thermal Effusivity by the Transient Plane Source MethodKeywords
thermal inertiaRationale
Thermal effusivity is a property that has garnered increased interest and is used in several industries (clothing, automotie, flooring, etc.). There is no approved standard for thermal effusivity. The transient plane source method is an absolute method that is used extensively to measure thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity, but it also has the ability to produce thermal effusivity results.
