Thermal runaway reactions in a low thermal inertia apparatus

Thermochimica Acta, 1986
Abstract A new apparatus utilizing a unique low heat capacity sample container is described for studying thermal runaway reactions. Other features provided by this new technique include: nearly equal pressures between sample container and the outside containment vessel as the runaway proceeds, a nearly zero temperature gradient outside the sample ...

Thermal inertia, thermal admittance, and the effect of layers

Remote Sensing of Environment, 1980
Abstract The effect of a diurnally varying flux on a solid surface is analysed in terms of thermal admittance, the reciprocal of complex thermal conductance. The presence of a surface layer of differing thermal characteristics from the bulk material, which can significantly affect the phase and amplitude of the temperature wave of the exposed surface,

Thermal inertia associated with ultrapulse technology in phacoemulsification

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2006
To determine whether very short pulses of ultrasound (5 to 6 milliseconds) have less heat propagation in biological tissue (thermal inertia) than traditional pulses (50 milliseconds).Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Utah Health Sciences Center, Salt Lake City, Utah.Thermal testing was done in balanced salt solution (BSS ...

Cooling by Thermal Earth Inertia

2010
Many of us had percept the positive thermal effect of the underground tunnels by traveling through the underground train. It is important to understand that soil temperatures during the summer at certain depths are considerably lower than ambient air temperature, thus provide an important source for dissipation of buildings excess heat.

Solar stills with low thermal inertia

Solar Energy, 1973
Abstract A small plastic still of approx. 2 ft2 area was developed, incorporating several unconventional design features, viz, a floating solar absorber to heat a thin layer of surface water, and a single-sloped roof with a specularly reflecting back wall.

Asteroid Thermal Inertia Analyzer

We developed the new model and corresponding publicly available software for determining the surface thermal inertia (TI) of asteroids [1,2]. We named it ASTERIA (Asteroid Thermal Inertia Analyzer). The model allows TI estimation based mostly on population-modeled input parameters in its basic variant.

Thermal Inertia of Conductivity Cells: Theory

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 1990
Abstract The temperature anomaly of a fluid moving through circular and rectangular cylinders induced by the heat stored in the walls of these hollow cylinders is derived under the assumption of quasi-steady heat transfer. These geometries correspond closely to the SBE-4 conductivity cell manufactured by Sea-Bird Electronics (SBE) and the NBIS Mark III

Power Electronics Cooling Effectiveness Versus Thermal Inertia

IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 2005
Today, the popularity of power electronics integration is increasing. Despite the prospect of fully integrated module, including features like driving and control electronics, protection, power integration has not taken-off for medium to high power electronics applications.

Thermal Inertia Properties of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete

Journal of Energy Engineering, 1999
Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a lightweight, porous concrete with advanced thermal properties. AAC is unique among construction materials in combining excellent thermal resistance and thermal inertia. Generally, low-density construction materials do not provide good thermal inertia, while heavier ones commonly have poor thermal resistance.
