Apparatus for measuring thermal diffusivity by LFA method and also specific heat and phase changes by DSC method
The set consists of three stands equipped with precise measurement apparatus provided by Netzsch: LFA 467 HyperFlash, LFA 467 HT HyperFlash and DSC 214 Polyma. This apparatus allows the measurement of thermal diffusivity in the range from 0.01 to 1000 mm2/s at the temperature value [-100°C, + 500 ° C] and [ambient temperature, + 1250 ° C], and in the case of measuring the specific heat by the DSC method at the temperature value [-170 ° C, + 600 ° C]. Various materials can be analyzed, also materials tof high thermal conductivity value and thin foils up to 1 mm of thickness, liquids with low thermal conductivity values, liquids with low viscosity (e.g. water, oils) or powders.
The research infrastructure can be used by the researchers and PhD students of the Faculty of Energy and Fuels and other Faculties of the AGH, but it is not possible to use the equipment on their own. Measurements will be carried out by an authorized person at the place of its installation. Measurements will be payable if they are carried out as part of externally funded research (e.g. grants from the NCR&D, the NSC, projects from industry, etc.). Other requests will be considered individually.
Measurement of thermal diffusivity in the range from 0.01 to 1000 mm2/s for a wide range of temperature values [-100°C,1200°C], measurement of specific heat using the DSC method in the temperature range [-170°C, +600°C]. Various materials can be analyzed in terms of thermal properties and physical form.
