Thermal Properties Testing

Thermal Testing for Difficult Samples

This service specializes in determining thermal resistivity (ρ) of challenging solid, granular, and liquid materials.

IEEE, ASTM Compliant

For liquids, solids and small grain particles, test methods ASTM D5334-05 and IEEE 442-1981 are used. A specially designed steady state thermal apparatus is used for more difficult large particle samples such as gravels and aggregate materials.

Range of Thermal Properties

Other thermal properties testing is also available, including thermal conductivity of all sample types, as well as thermal diffusivity and volumetric specific heat of small grained granular materials and liquids.

Specify Testing Conditions

Samples can be evaluated over a wide range of temperatures, -40 to +100C (depending on sample type). In porous media (like soils), thermal properties can be measured at specified water content ranging from oven dry to saturation and at specified material density.

Most samples can be analyzed within two weeks of receipt of material at Decagon. Contact Decagon (thermaltesting@decagon.com) for more information or quotes for specific services.
