COMPENDIUM OF THERMOPHYSICAL PROPERTY MEASUREMENT METHODS: RECOMMENDED MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES AND PRACTICES: v. 2

The first volume of this two-volume reference, Survey of measurement techniques was published in 1984 and provided an exhaustive compilation of methods for the measurement of thermal and electrical conductivity, thermal difusivity, specific heat, thermal expansion, and thermal radiative properties of solid materials. The second volume describes recommended practices for the determination of transport and thermodynamic properties of selected groups of materials. Only techniques which have reached a mature state of development are included. While most of the apparatus described is for measuring solid materials, a few methods for molten metals or fluids have also been included. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
