The significance of thermal interface materials, especially thermal greases, in minimizing thermal resistance within the \"microelectronic device—heat-dissipating element\" interface, has been widely acknowledged across industries such as microelectronics, aviation, and space engineering. Despite the promising reported values, a crucial consideration entails the method of ascertaining effective thermal conductivity, necessitating measurements in bulk samples to ensure accurate representations. Graphite, owing to its commercial accessibility and commendable thermal conductivity, emerges as a standout candidate for composite material development, as demonstrated in recent research. We observed that the use of graphite-based fillers, particularly in the form of well-crystallized graphite particles, effectively reduced processor temperatures and enhanced effective thermal conductivity, outperforming industrially utilized thermal greases. Our findings accentuate the potential of these materials in contributing to the development of cutting-edge composite materials for microelectronics, highlighting their high prospects for future applications in high-performance devices.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"45 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142414065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Computational simulations of HIFU can assist clinicians by predicting the death of target tissues, identifying sensitive healthy tissues that risk thermal damage, and optimizing acoustic power delivery to minimize treatment times and maximize treatment efficacy. Accurate simulations require accurate inputs, and many computational solvers neglect property changes induced by tissue heating during treatment. Additionally, temperature-dependent tissue property data in the literature are relatively scarce. This study presents methodology for characterizing temperature-dependent acoustic and thermal properties in ex vivo porcine muscle tissue. From 20 – 50 °C, speed of sound is found to increase from approximately 1580 – 1620 m/s. The acoustic attenuation coefficient increases for 20 – 50 °C from 0.09 – 0.24 Np/cm at 0.5 MHz and 0.16 – 0.37 Np/cm at 1.6 MHz. Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity increase from 0.52 – 0.55 W/m °C and 0.147 – 0.158 mm²/s, respectively, over 20 – 60 °C. Specific heat capacity increases from approximately 3500 – 3800 J/kg °C, over 20 – 80 °C. Each property is consistent with data found in the literature, extends the literature to a larger temperature range, and, for acoustic properties, extends to unique frequencies. Temperature-dependent predictive models are also developed for each of the five properties. This study’s property measurement methodologies can be used to characterize other biological tissues, and the predictive models developed herein will facilitate future efforts in temperature-dependent modeling and uncertainty quantification of HIFU thermal therapies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"45 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10765-024-03436-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142414070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The azeotropic blend of R-1336mzz(Z)/1130(E) is classified as R-514A in ANSI/ASHRAE standard 34. Liquid phase speed of sound data are reported from just above the saturation pressure of pure R-1130(E) or the bubble point pressure of R-514A to a maximum pressure of 26.7 MPa. The relative combined expanded uncertainty in the speed of sound varies from 0.032 % to 0.148 % with the greatest deviations occurring at the lowest sound speeds. At present, no reference Helmholtz-energy-explicit equation of state (EOS) is available for R-1130(E). Therefore, the reported data for pure R-1130(E) are compared to an extended corresponding states (ECS) model. Deviations between the pure R-1130(E) sound speed data and the ECS model were found to be consistently negative ranging between − 4.1 % and − 3.5 %. The R-514A data are compared to a multifluid model inclusive of the established reference Helmholtz-energy-explicit EOS for R-1336mzz(Z) and ECS model for R-1130(E) with estimated binary interaction parameters. Deviations between the experimental speed of sound data and the multifluid model were also found to be consistently negative. However, deviations from the multifluid model were found to be as great as − 17.1 %. The large deviations from the ECS model and multifluid model underscore the need for a robust Helmholtz-energy-explicit EOS for R-1130(E).</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"45 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10765-024-03416-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142414235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clathrate hydrates are solids composed of water and guests. The clathrate hydrate-based technologies considered in this study were as follows: carbon capture, utilization, and sequestration; natural gas storage and transportation; ozone storage and transportation; carbon dioxide clathrate hydrate as food; desalination and salt production; separation of tritiated water; cold thermal energy storage; and heat pumps and heat engines. The review was based on the experimentally measured data. The reviewed thermophysical properties were phase equilibrium conditions, formation/decomposition enthalpy, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, interfacial tension, and density. The phase equilibrium conditions determine the operating conditions for the clathrate hydrate-based technologies. The formation/decomposition enthalpy, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity relate to the thermal energy exchange during hydrate formation/decomposition. The interfacial tension is a key parameter when considering the multiphase flow composed of water and guests. The density influences the behavior of clathrate hydrates within the reactor. The relevance between these properties and the clathrate hydrate-based technologies was discussed. The methods correlating the phase equilibrium conditions were also compared in terms of applicability and usefulness.

Experimental data were used to derive essential properties such as excess molar volumes, excess isentropic compressibilities, and refractive index deviations. The excess and deviation properties provided invaluable insights into the interactions occurring among the mixture components. Redlich–Kister and Cibulka's equations were employed to correlate these properties for binary and ternary systems, respectively. Remarkably, the standard deviations consistently fell below the estimated uncertainties associated with the corresponding properties, attesting to the robustness of the correlations. Additionally, the Perturbed Chain Statistical Associating Fluid Theory was applied to model the density of both binary and ternary mixtures. The study also compared Schaaff’s collision factor theory and Nomoto’s relation in their ability to predict sound speeds for the investigated mixtures. Various mixing rules, including Lorentz-Lorenz, Gladstone-Dale, Laplace, and Eykman, were employed to model the refractive indices of the mixtures. The efficacy of these models in predicting the properties was evaluated using the average absolute percentage deviation between the experimental and calculated values. The modeled densities matched well with the experimental data, with overall deviations of 0.19 %, 0.38 %, and 0.25 % for the binary systems MTBE + <i>n</i>-hexane, MTBE + cyclohexane, and <i>n</i>-hexane + cyclohexane, respectively, and 0.21 % for the ternary system MTBE + <i>n</i>-hexane + cyclohexane. Notably, Nomoto’s relation exhibited superior performance in predicting both binary (overall deviation of 0.65 %) and ternary (deviation of 1.10 %) sound speeds. In contrast, any of the four tested mixing rules performed equally well for predicting binary and ternary refractive indices. This work contributes to the understanding of interactions between components in mixtures. It also provides valuable data for petrochemical and environmental engineers involved in designing extraction processes, processing equipment, and formulating gasoline blends that meet the industry's rigorous standards and align with environmental sustainability goals.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":598,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermophysics","volume":"45 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142257545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
