Structural features of nickel clad carbon fibers and determination of their thermophysical properties using pulsed radiation

Abstract

It was considered the forming multilayer heat-resistant coatings that work under conditions of elevated temperatures and long-term oxidation. The issue of increasing the service life of the parts by strengthening their bulk and surface is considered. The issue of determining the level of the thermophysical properties is also considered. The thermophysical properties of carbonyl iron reinforced with carbon fibers (CF) pre-clad with nickel are investigated. Unclad and nickel clad carbon fibers were produced. The thermal conductivities of the samples are determined depending on the conditions of their production. The thermal conductivity characteristics of polymer composite materials based on CF with ceramic hollow microspheres and carbonyl iron from CF depending on the conditions of their production were determined. It is shown that heat transfer mechanisms related to the electron-lattice interaction can function in these systems. Heat transfer can occur by various transport mechanisms, such as collisions or diffusion. Nevertheless, the increase in thermal conductivity can be related to the electronic mechanism. The thermal conductivity of materials based on carbonyl iron with nickel-plated CF is 1.2 times higher compared to unclad CF, which is due to better adhesive interaction between the coated carbon fibers and iron was established.
