Physical thermal properties

Najjar, Bell, and Maddox studied the influence of physical property data on calculated heat transfer film coefficients and concluded that accurate fluid property data is extremely important when calculating heat transfer coefficients using the relationships offered by Dittus-Boelter, Sieder-Tate, and Petukhov. Therefore, the designer must strive to arrive at good consistent physical/thermal property data for these calculations.

An extensive new Section 10 is devoted to polymers, rubbers, fats, oils, and waxes. A discussion of polymers and rubbers is followed by the formulas and key properties of plastic materials. Eor each member and type of the plastic families there is a tabulation of their physical, electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties and characteristics. A similar treatment is accorded the various types of rubber materials. Chemical resistance and gas permeability constants are also given for rubbers and plastics. The section concludes with various constants of fats, oils, and waxes. 

Material Properties. The properties of materials are ultimately deterrnined by the physics of their microstmcture. For engineering appHcations, however, materials are characterized by various macroscopic physical and mechanical properties. Among the former, the thermal properties of materials, including melting temperature, thermal conductivity, specific heat, and coefficient of thermal expansion, are particularly important in welding. 

Two classes of fat replacers exist mimetics, which are compounds that help replace the mouthfeel of fats but caimot substitute for fat on a weight for weight basis and substitutes, compounds having physical and thermal properties similar to those of fat, that can theoretically replace fat in all appHcations (46). Because fats play a complex role in so many food appHcations, one fat replacer is often not a satisfactory substitute. Thus a systems approach to fat replacement, which reHes on a combination of emulsifiers, gums, and thickeners, is often used. 

The physical, thermal, and electronic properties of germanium metal are shown in Table 1. Optical properties are given in Table 2. 

A knowledge of the viscous and thermal properties of non-Newtonian fluids is essential before the results of the analyses can be used for practical design purposes. Because of the nonlinear nature, the prediction of these properties from kinetic theories is as of this writing in its infancy. Eor the purpose of design and performance calculations, physical properties of non-Newtonian fluids must be measured. 

Properties. Table 1 hsts many of the physical, thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties of indium. The highly plastic nature of indium, which is its most notable feature, results from deformation from mechanical twinning. Indium retains this plasticity at cryogenic temperatures. Indium does not work-harden, can endure considerable deformation through compression, cold-welds easily, and has a distinctive cry on bending as does tin. 

High demands are placed on the substrate material of disk-shaped optical data storage devices regarding the optical, physical, chemical, mechanical, and thermal properties. In addition to these physical parameters, they have to meet special requirements regarding optical purity of the material, processing characteristics, and especially in mass production, economic characteristics (costs, processing). The question of recyclabiUty must also be tackled. 

Aesthetic properties are of greatest concern in decorative laminates. These include gloss, appearance, cleanabiUty, wear resistance, stain resistance, and other surface properties. Physical properties are of most importance for industrial laminates. These include strength, electrical and thermal properties, expansion coefficient, and punchabiUty. The definitions of the laminate grades in these standards foUow.

For cubic crystals, which iaclude sUicon, properties described by other than a zero- or a second-rank tensor are anisotropic (17). Thus, ia principle, whether or not a particular property is anisotropic can be predicted. There are some properties, however, for which the tensor rank is not known. In addition, ia very thin crystal sections, the crystal may have two-dimensional characteristics and exhibit a different symmetry from the bulk, three-dimensional crystal (18). Table 4 is a listing of various isotropic and anisotropic sUicon properties. Table 5 gives values for the more common physical properties and for some of the thermodynamic properties. Figure 5 shows some thermal properties. 

T and are the glass-transition temperatures in K of the homopolymers and are the weight fractions of the comonomers (49). Because the glass-transition temperature is directly related to many other material properties, changes in T by copolymerization cause changes in other properties too. Polymer properties that depend on the glass-transition temperature include physical state, rate of thermal expansion, thermal properties, torsional modulus, refractive index, dissipation factor, brittle impact resistance, flow and heat distortion properties, and minimum film-forming temperature of polymer latex... 

For physical, thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties, ASTM test methods are employed (28). Flammability ratings are often based on Underwriters Laboratories (UL) standards (29). UL flammabiUty ratings given ia this article are aot iateaded to reflect the hazards preseated by the resias uader use coaditioas. Typical properties are givea ia Table 3. More details and additional properties are given ia Refereaces 5 and 31—33.

Almost any known polymer or polymer mixture can be used in the capacity of a polymer matrix various additives may be introduced in the matrix to reduce melt viscosity, increase thermal stability of the composition or its plasticity, etc. A choice of a matrix is determined mainly by the operating conditions of a material and the desired physical-mechanical properties of a composite. One may state rather confidently that, other things being equal, the value of the CPCM conductivity does not depend on a choice of a polymer matrix [3]. 

The thermal properties of block copolymers are similar to physical blends of the same polymer segments. Each distinct phase of the copolymer displays unique thermal transitions, such as a glass transition and/or a crystalline melting point. The thermal transitions of the different phases are affected by the degree of intermixing between the phases.

Table 17 provides a list of various polysiloxane-poly(aryl ether) copolymers investigated. Depending on the type, nature and the level of the hard blocks incorporated, physical, thermal and mechanical properties of these materials can be varied over a very wide range from that of thermoplastic elastomers to rubber modified engineering thermoplastics. Resultant copolymers are processable by solution techniques and in some cases by melt processing 22,244). 

The metal casting industry conventionally divides casting products into ferrous and nonferrous metals, in particular, iron-based, steel-based, aluminum-based, and copper-based castings. The other castings of low fractions include magnesium, lead, zinc, and their alloys. In the U.S., the foundry industry currently produces 11 million tons of metal product per year, with a shipment value of 19 billion. Of them, iron and steel accounted for 84% of metals cast.5 The remaining 15% of foundry operations are concerned with aluminum, copper, zinc, and lead production. Table 4.2 summarizes critical physical and thermal properties of aluminum, iron/steel, and cast iron. 

Physical, thermal, and chemical stability in order to reduce operating costs, solid sorbents must demonstrate stability under flue gas conditions, adsorption operation conditions, and during the multi-cycle adsorption-regeneration process. In particular, stability in the presence of water vapor is essential for the sustainable performance of the solid sorbent. In addition to thermal properties of the solid sorbent, heat capacity and thermal conductivity are also important in heat transfer operations.
