Abstract
A thermal conductivity test apparatus based on transient plane source method is built and developed to measure effective thermal conductivity of open porous materials at different gas pressures. The effective thermal conductivity of open nano-porous silica materials with porosity of 88.5% is measured under gas pressures ranging from 0.001Pa to 1MPa. The contribution of gaseous heat conduction to the effective thermal conductivity of materials is decomposed by subtracting the effective thermal conductivity at ultimate vacuum from that at different gas pressure. It is found that the contribution of gaseous heat conduction is much different with the gas thermal conductivity in nano-porous materials and that in free space. The result is also demonstrated by theoretical analysis and numerical simulation.
