An Improved Thermal Conductivity Polyurethane Composite for a Space Borne 20KV Power Supply

This effort was designed to find a way to reduce the temperature rise of critical components of a 20KV High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS) by improving the overall thermal conductivity of the encapsulated modules. Three strategies were evaluated by developing complete procedures, preparing samples, and performing tests. The three strategies were: 1. Improve the thermal conductivity of the polyurethane encapsulant through the addition of thermally conductive powder while minimizing impact on other characteristics of the encapsulant. 2. Improve the thermal conductivity of the polyurethane encapsulated assembly by the addition of a slab of thermally conductive, electrically insulating material, which is to act as a heat spreader. 3. Employ a more thermally conductive substrate (Al203) with the existing encapsulation scheme. The materials were chosen based on the following criteria: high dielectric breakdown strength; high thermal conductivity, ease of manufacturing, high compliance, and other standard space qualified materials properties (low out-gassing, etc.). An optimized cure was determined by a statistical design of experiments for both filled and unfilled materials. The materials were characterized for the desired properties and a complete process was developed and tested. The thermal performance was substantially improved and the strategies may be used for space flight.

On the Effective Thermal Conductivity of Frost Considering Mass Diffusion and Eddy Convection

A physical model for the effective thermal conductivity of water frost is proposed for application to the full range of frost density. The proposed model builds on the Zehner-Schlunder one-dimensional formulation for porous media appropriate for solid-to-fluid thermal conductivity ratios less than about 1000. By superposing the effects of mass diffusion and eddy convection on stagnant conduction in the fluid, the total effective thermal conductivity of frost is shown to be satisfactorily described. It is shown that the effects of vapor diffusion and eddy convection on the frost conductivity are of the same order. The results also point out that idealization of the frost structure by cylindrical inclusions offers a better representation of the effective conductivity of frost as compared to spherical inclusions. Satisfactory agreement between the theory and the measurements for the effective thermal conductivity of frost is demonstrated for a wide range of frost density and frost temperature.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of the Antiamoebin Ion Channel: Linking Structure and Conductance

Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out in order to ascertain which of the potential multimeric forms of the transmembrane peptaibol channel, antiamoebin, is consistant with its measured conductance. Estimates of the conductance obtained through counting ions that cross the channel and by solving the Nernst-Planck equation yield consistent results, indicating that the motion of ions inside the channel can be satisfactorily described as diffusive.The calculated conductance of octameric channels is markedly higher than the conductance measured in single channel recordings, whereas the tetramer appears to be non-conducting. The conductance of the hexamer was estimated to be 115+/-34 pS and 74+/-20 pS, at 150 mV and 75 mV, respectively, in satisfactory agreement with the value of 90 pS measured at 75 mV. On this basis we propose that the antiamoebin channel consists of six monomers. Its pore is large enough to accommodate K(+) and Cl(-) with their first solvation shells intact. The free energy barrier encountered by K(+) is only 2.2 kcal/mol whereas Cl(-) encounters a substantially higher barrier of nearly 5 kcal/mol. This difference makes the channel selective for cations. Ion crossing events are shown to be uncorrelated and follow Poisson statistics. keywords: ion channels, peptaibols, channel conductance, molecular dynamics

Thermally-Conductive Metallic Coatings and Applications for Heat Removal on In-Space Cryogenic Vehicles

For large in-space cryogenic upper stages, substantial axial heat removal from a forward skirt by vapor-based heat interception may not be achieved by simple attachment methods unless sufficient thermal conductance from the skirt to the cooling fluid can be achieved. Preferable methods would allow for the addition of the cooling system to existing structure with minimal impact on the structure. Otherwise, significant modification to the basic structural design andor novel and complex attachment mechanisms with high effective thermal conductance are likely to be required. The approach being pursued by evolvable Cryogenics (eCryo) is to increase the thermal performance of a relatively simple attachment system by applying metallic or other thermally conductive material coatings to the mating surface area of the fluid channel where it is attached the skirt wall. The expectation of candidate materials is that the dramatic increase in conductivity of pure metals at temperatures close to liquid hydrogen vapor temperature will compensate for the reduced actual contact area typical of mechanical joints. Basic contact conductance data at low temperatures for candidate interface materials is required to enable the test approach. A test rig was designed at NASA Glenn Research Center to provide thermal contact resistance testing between small sample coupons coated with conductive material via electron beam evaporation, a low-temperature option that will not affect physical properties of base materials. Average coating thicknesses were 10 k. The test fixture was designed to mount directly to a cryocooler cold head within a vacuum test chamber. The purpose of this test was to determine qualitative contact conductance between various test samples. Results from this effort will be implemented in a sub-scale vapor-based heat interception test, where the applicability for increased heat removal on large structural skirts will be considered.

Conductivity of a Copper-Carbon Covetic Composite

NASA is currently engaged in the development of highly electrically conductive wire for space and aviation power and propulsion applications. Higher levels of electrical conductivity and lower densities compared to copper and aluminum are needed to improve the efficiency of commercial aviation and space flight. Carbon, in various forms, is being considered as a component in composites to increase conductivity and decrease density in Cu and Al. One form of carbon that is currently receiving much interest is known as covectic. The technology currently known as covetics was first introduced by Shugart and Scherer whose patents claimed "Carbon can be incorporated into any of these metals by melting the metal, mixing the carbon into the molten metal and, while mixing, applying a current of sufficient amperage to the molten mixture such that the carbon becomes incorporated into the metal, thereby forming a single phase metal-carbon material." It is reported that in this process a conversion reaction occurs with the carbon forming covalent bonds with the host metal, and that covetic processing enables higher carbon solubility and improvements in properties. Although there is a growing body of work supporting covetic materials, it is still a very new and somewhat controversial field. Composition, density, and electrical conductivity measurements of a covetically processed alloy ingot of Cu and C, with a nominal composition of Cu-0.4wt.% C, were made. A pure Cu ingot was similarly processed for comparison. Sections of these ingots were worked into wire and tested. Only small amounts of C could be detected in the Cu-0.4wt.% C ingot, and trace amounts (0.006 wt.%) in the wire. All wires had densities very close to the full density of pure Cu, indicating a high level of Cu purity and low void fraction. Finally, the electrical conductivity of the Cu-0.4wt.% C wires were 9% lower than the samples similarly processed but without C additions. The wires made without C additions had conductivities approximately equal to pure Cu. The low conductivity of the Cu-0.4wt.% C material is believed to be due to: (1) a structure of interfaces in the wire created by collapsed voids lined with elemental C, (2) impurities, such as Fe in the Cu, which came from the added C, and (3) a small volume fraction of voids.

Inkjet Printing of Conductive Carbon Nanotubes

Systems and methods for forming conductive materials. The conductive materials can be applied using a printer in single or multiple passes onto a substrate. The conductive materials are composed of electrical conductors such as carbon nanotubes (including functionalized carbon nanotubes and metal-coated carbon nanotubes), grapheme, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (e.g. pentacene and bisperipentacene), metal nanoparticles, an inherently conductive polymer (ICP), and combinations thereof. Once the conductive materials are applied, the materials are dried and sintered to form adherent conductive materials on the substrate. The adherent conductive materials can be used in applications such as damage detection, particle removal, and smart coating systems.

Role of Compressive Viscosity and Thermal Conductivity on the Damping of Slow Waves in Coronal Loops with and Without Heating–Cooling Imbalance

In the present article, we derive a new dispersion relation for slow magnetoacoustic waves invoking the effect of thermal conductivity, compressive viscosity, radiation, and an unknown heating term along with the consideration of heating–cooling imbalance from linearized MHD equations. We solve the general dispersion relation to understand the role of compressive viscosity and thermal conductivity in the damping of slow waves in coronal loops with and without heating–cooling imbalance. We have analyzed the wave damping for the range of loop length L=50--500 Mm, temperature T=5--30 MK, and density ρ=10^(−11)--10^(−9) kg/cu.m. It was found that the inclusion of compressive viscosity along with thermal conductivity significantly enhances the damping of the fundamental mode oscillations in shorter (e.g. L=50 Mm) and super-hot (T>10 MK) loops. However, the role of viscosity in the damping is insignificant in longer (e.g. L=500 Mm) and hot loops (T≤10 MK) where, instead, thermal conductivity along with the presence of heating–cooling imbalance plays a dominant role. For shorter loops at a super-hot regime of temperature, the increment in the loop density substantially enhances the damping of the fundamental modes due to thermal conductivity when viscosity is absent, however, when the compressive viscosity is added the increase in density substantially weakens the damping. Thermal conductivity alone is found to play a dominant role in longer loops at lower temperatures (T≤10 MK), while compressive viscosity dominates the damping at super-hot temperatures (T>10 MK) in shorter loops. The predicted scaling law between damping time (τ) and wave period (P) is found to better match the observed SUMER (Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation) oscillations when the heating–cooling imbalance is taken into account in addition to thermal conductivity and compressive viscosity for the damping of the fundamental slow mode oscillations.

Conducting coatings for anodes, methods of making and using same, and uses thereof

Conducting coatings disposed on a metal member. The conducting coatings may have a desired texture and provide homoepitaxial or heteroepitaxial coating of an electrodeposited layer. A conducting coating may be formed by applying a shear force during deposition of the conducting coating. The conducting coatings may be used in anodes of various electrochemical devices. A conducting coating, which may be part of an electrochemical device, may have an electrochemically deposited layer disposed on at least a portion of a surface of the conducting coating. The electrochemically deposited layer may be reversibly electrochemically deposited.

In-plane thermal conductivity and the applicability of the Wiedemann–Franz law in dilute AlCu thin films

The Wiedemann–Franz (WF) law correlates heat and charge transport in metals. However, the validity of this correlation remains an open-ended question, especially in the context of inelastic scattering at room temperature. To address this gap in knowledge, we perform independent measurements of the in-plane thermal and electrical conductivities across four AlCu (0.5% Cu) films [thickness (⁠h⁠) ≈ 174, 98, 53, and 24 nm] using optical pump–probe metrologies and four-point probe techniques, respectively. For in-plane thermal conductivity measurements, we utilize time-domain thermoreflectance, in both concentric and beam-offset configurations, and the time-resolved magneto-optic Kerr effect. Our results show that the WF law overpredicts the thermal conductivity by at least ∼10% in all films, thus demonstrating modest deviations in predicted thermal conductivity when applying the WF law to dilute AlCu films. Using infrared variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, we demonstrate increased electron scattering rates in the thinnest film (⁠⁠h⁠ ≈ 24 nm), indicating electron-boundary scattering drives the reduction in in-plane thermal conductivity. Furthermore, this is generally an elastic scattering process, which is supported by our thermal conductivity measurements and analysis.

Intrinsic thermal conductivity of ZrC from low to ultrahigh temperatures: A critical revisit

Current phonon transport theory based on ground-state calculations has been successful in predicting thermal conductivity at room and medium temperatures but may misrepresent behavior at high temperatures. Here, in this work, we predict the thermal conductivity (κ) of ZrC including electronic and phonon contributions from 300 to 3500 K, by including high-order phonon scattering; lattice expansion; temperature-dependent (TD) second-, third-, and fourth-order force constants (2FC, 3FC, and 4FC); and interband phonon conduction by using first principles. For the phonon transport, we find that four-phonon scattering (4ph) significantly reduces the phonon thermal conductivity (κ ph ), by as much as ~75% at 3500 K. After including 4ph scattering and all other factors, κ ph shows a ~T –1.5 rather than ~T –1 dependence. TD 2FC decreases three-phonon scattering rates but increases 4ph rates by decreasing and increasing the scattering phase spaces, respectively. For 4ph phase space, the TD 2FC flattens phonon bands, and allows more redistribution-4ph processes (1 + 2 → 3 + 4) to happen. The combination effect of TD 2FC and TD 4FC reduces 4ph rates of acoustic modes but increases those of optical modes. The TD 3FC and 4FC decrease the phonon scattering cross section and increase the κ ph significantly (by 52% at 3500 K). The contribution from interband (Wigner) phonon conduction is small, even at ultrahigh temperatures. For electronic thermal transport, we find that it is sensitive to and can be changed by 20% by the TD lattice constants. The Lorenz number varies from 1.6 to 3.3 × 10 –8 WΩK –2 at different temperatures. The theoretical prediction in the literature overpredicts κph (e.g., ~28%) and underpredicts the κ el (e.g., ~38%), resulting in an overall underprediction of κ (~26% at 1500 K). The impacts of grain size and defects are found to be strong, leading to the lower observed thermal conductivity in experiments.

INGENIOUS Thermal Conductivity Measurement Source Categorization

Thermal conductivity (TC) data taken for different wells at a specified drill depth. This is an abridged version of the complete SMU heat flow database, downloaded from the SMU node of the NGDS at the beginning of INGENIOUS (approximately April 2021), and filtered to the INGENIOUS study area. This National Geothermal Data System (NGDS) project aggregates geothermal data collected and curated by the SMU Geothermal Laboratory and its partner organizations. All columns in this database are the same as the SMU database, except for 2 additions associated with this project. Repeated columns are for data correlation purposes. Column descriptions and data types are the same as previous iterations of the SMU database. The new values that are the addition are two new columns developed as part of the INGENIOUS project: INGENIOUS TC Value | INGENIOUS notes INGENIOUS notes are individual notes that were written for specific data points during the analysis process. There are not always notes associated with each input value. INGENIOUS TC Value includes 4 values: 1. Assumed Measured These are values that are assumed to be measured thermal conductivity values, either within a specific well or within the same study region. Many of these have either a published reference, a reported standard deviation, or a unique thermal conductivity value. 2. Data release - assumed measured These are values in the SMU database that are from proprietary data that were added to the SMU database and are labeled as data release for their reference. These values were searched for in person at the SMU Geothermal Laboratory as well as virtual examination of data available on the NGDS. For many of these, there are reported thermal conductivity values associated with the heat flow data in the database, but no specific table or reference to measurements in the original data release files. 3. Known measured These are values that have a reported measurement, either as an original file in the SMU data files on the NGDS or a reported table in a publication. In the rare circumstances, Maria Richards or David Blackwell confirmed measurement. Confirmation of measurement would be written in the INGENIOUS notes column. 4. Unmeasured Unmeasured values are those that are known to be unmeasured, either estimated from another report or no information given. In the SMU database, there are wells that have a heat flow but no thermal conductivity. These are categorized as unmeasured. There are also heat flow values that are stated to have estimated or generalized average thermal conductivity values for the region and rock type. Because these are known to be unmeasured, they are categorized as such. 5. Blank Blank values are either A quality or X quality. These quality values are stated in the INGENIOUS notes. These values were not going to change associated with the heat flow analysis, so these were not examined.

Anisotropic Thermally Conductive Composites Enabled by Acoustophoresis and Stereolithography

Opportunities to improve thermal management in electronic devices are currently hindered by processing constraints that limit thermal conductivity in polymer-matrix composites. Active patterning of filler particles is a promising route to improve conductivity while retaining processability by improving particle contact density and directing heat along optimized pathways. Here, we employ acoustic patterning to align and compact filler particles into stripes during stereolithographic 3D printing. This approach produces polymer-based composite materials with highly efficient embedded heat transport pathways which reach 95 vol% particle utilization (relative to the parallel conduction upper limit). These composites exhibit anisotropic thermal conductivity up to 300% higher than unpatterned composites, with in-plane anisotropy ratios of up to 350%. Combining this high conductivity with 3D printing enables materials with engineered heat networks that optimize transport from hot spots to heatsinks while maintaining low viscosity for fast particle patterning and for infiltration around electronic components. Finally, numerical simulations of acoustic assembly of particles with varied geometry, when compared to experimentally characterized particle packing, illuminate pathways for further improving conductivity by optimizing particle geometry for alignment and stacking of particles with maximum contact surface area.

Transparent and Conductive Inorganic/Polymer‐Composite Encapsulants for Long‐Term Perovskite Solar Cells Operation

An innovative inorganic/polymer-composite encapsulation scheme comprising a polymer-based transparent conductive composite (TCC) coupled with a transparent conductive oxide is introduced to extend the lifetime of moisture-sensitive devices such as perovskite solar cells (PSC). The TCC comprises conductive silver-coated polymethyl methacrylate (Ag-PMMA) microsphere fillers protruding from a transparent non-conductive polymer matrix. TCC samples (5% Ag-PMMA by area) demonstrate high optical transparencies (%T approx. 85% in the 370–1200 nm region), low out-of-plane electrical resistivities (R < 0.2 Ω cm 2 ), and equilibrium permeabilities of less than 1 g mm/m 2 /day, all of which are well-maintained after 1,000 hours of environmental exposure. In practice, the TCC is employed between two indium zinc oxide (IZO) thin films, with the in-plane conductivity of IZO and the out-of-plane conductivity of TCC working collectively to function as a single encapsulating electrode. This encapsulation scheme is exemplified by benchmarking performances of PSCs subjected to accelerated aging conditions of quasi-maximum power point tracking under light soaking in air at 50 °C, 40% R.H. to 60% R.H. Notable improvements in operational lifetimes are observed, with a champion encapsulated PSC maintaining over 90% of its initial efficiency of 21.65% for up to 1,430 hours, compare to less than 300 hours for an unencapsulated control.

Size- and Temperature-Dependent Suppression of Phonon Thermal Conductivity in Carbon Nanotube Thermoelectric Films

Heat transport in nanoscale carbon materials such as carbon nanotubes and graphene is normally dominated by phonons. Here, measurements of in-plane thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and thermopower are presented from 77–350 K on two films with thickness <100 nm formed from semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes. These measurements are made with silicon–nitride membrane thermal isolation platforms. The two films, formed from disordered networks of tubes with differing tube and bundle size, have very different thermal conductivity. One film matches a simple model of heat conduction assuming constant phonon velocity and mean free path, and 3D Debye heat capacity with a Debye temperature of 770 K. The second film shows a more complicated temperature dependence, with a dramatic drop in a relatively narrow window near 200 K where phonon contributions to thermal conductivity essentially vanish. This causes a corresponding large increase in thermoelectric figure-of-merit at the same temperature. A better understanding of this behavior can allow significant improvement in thermoelectric efficiency of these low-cost earth-abundant, organic electronic materials. Finally, heat and charge conductivity near room temperature is also presented as a function of doping, which provides further information on the interaction of dopant molecules and phonon transport in disordered nanotube films.

Thermal Conductivity of BAs under Pressure

Abstract The thermal conductivity of boron arsenide (BAs) is believed to be influenced by phonon scattering selection rules due to its special phonon dispersion. Compression of BAs leads to significant changes in phonon dispersion, which allows for a test of first principles theories for how phonon dispersion affects three‐ and four‐phonon scattering rates. This study reports the thermal conductivity of BAs from 0 to 30 GPa. Thermal conductivity vs. pressure of BAs is measured by time‐domain thermoreflectance with a diamond anvil cell. In stark contrast to what is typical for nonmetallic crystals, BAs is observed to have a pressure independent thermal conductivity below 30 GPa. The thermal conductivity of nonmetallic crystals typically increases upon compression. The unusual pressure independence of BAs's thermal conductivity shows the important relationship between phonon dispersion properties and three‐ and four‐phonon scattering rates.

Remarkable enhancement in thermal conductivity of stainless-steel leveraging metal composite via laser powder bed fusion: 316L-Cu composite

This work aimed to significantly enhance the thermal conductivity of the SS matrix by fabricating a metal composite SS-Cu system utilizing a laser powder bed fusion process. The impact of process parameters on the microstructure of SS-Cu samples is investigated. Here, the processing and post-processing factors that influence the effective thermal conductivity of the metal composite SS-Cu system are discussed. Then, the effective thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the SS-Cu composite are measured at room temperature and operating temperature of 300 °C. The optimized laser powder bed fusion parameters led to low Marangoni convection, high cooling rate, greater macro-segregation, and higher thermal conductivity values albeit at the cost of ductility in SS-Cu metal composite likely due to the presence of the unmelted powder particles. As-printed SS-60 vol % Cu and annealed SS-60 vol % Cu had 2.5X and 6.6X thermal conductivity enhancement, respectively. During annealing, phase separation, partial melting of Cu, and formation of a continuous network of Cu surrounding SS play a key role in enhancing the thermal conductivity of the SS-Cu metal composite structure.

Accelerated computation of lattice thermal conductivity using neural network interatomic potentials

We report with the development of the density functional theory (DFT) and ever-increasing computational capacity, an accurate prediction of lattice thermal conductivity based on the Boltzmann transport theory becomes computationally feasible, contributing to a fundamental understanding of thermal conductivity as well as a choice of the optimal materials for specific applications. However, steep costs in evaluating third-order force constants limit the theoretical investigation to crystals with high symmetry and few atoms in the unit cell. Currently, machine learning potentials are garnering attention as a computationally efficient high-fidelity model of DFT, and several studies have demonstrated that the lattice thermal conductivity could be computed accurately via the machine learning potentials. However, test materials were mostly crystals with high symmetries, and the applicability of machine learning potentials to a wide range of materials has yet to be demonstrated. Furthermore, establishing a standard training set that provides consistent accuracy and computational efficiencies across a wide range of materials would be useful. To address these issues, herein we compute lattice thermal conductivities at 300 K using neural network interatomic potentials. As test materials, we select 25 materials with diverse symmetries and a wide range of lattice thermal conductivities between 10 -1 and 10 3 Wm -1 K -1 . Among various choices of training sets, we find that molecular dynamics trajectories at 50–700 K consistently provide results at par with DFT for the test materials. In contrast to pure DFT approaches, the computational cost in the present approach is uniform over the test materials, yielding a speed gain of 2–10 folds. When a smaller reduced training set is used, the relative efficiency increases by up to ~50 folds without sacrificing accuracy significantly. The current work will broaden the application scope of machine learning potentials by establishing a robust framework for accurately computing lattice thermal conductivity with machine learning potentials.

Thermal conductivity measurement using modulated photothermal radiometry for nitrate and chloride molten salts

Molten salts are being used or explored for thermal energy storage and conversion systems in concentrating solar power and nuclear power plants. Thermal conductivity of molten salts is an important thermophysical property dictating the performance and cost of these systems, but its accurate measurement has been challenging, as evidenced by wide scattering of existing data in literature. The corrosive and conducting nature of these fluids also leads to time consuming sample preparation processes of many contact-based measurements. Here, in this work, we report the measurement of thermal conductivity of molten salts using a modulated photothermal radiometry (MPR) technique, which is a laser-based, non-contact, frequency-domain method adopted for molten salts for the first time. By unitizing the advantages of front side sensing of frequency-domain measurements and the vertical holder orientation, the technique can minimize the natural convection and salt creeping effects, thus yielding accurate molten salt thermal conductivity . The MPR technique is first calibrated using standard molten materials including paraffin wax and sulfur. It is then applied on measuring pure nitrate salts (NaNO 3 and KNO 3 ), solar salt (NaNO 3 –KNO 3 mixture), and chloride salt (NaCl–KCl–MgCl 2 ). The measurement results are compared with data from literature, especially those obtained from laser flash analysis (LFA). Our results demonstrate that the MPR is a convenient and reliable technique of measuring thermal conductivity of molten salts. Accurate thermal conductivity data of molten salts will be valuable in developing the next-generation high-temperature thermal energy storage and conversion systems.
