INTRODUCTION High-temperature operations in the chemical processing and nuclear industries have created a need for economical, efficient heat-transfer media whose thermal propertieg are superior to those of organic and gaseous coolants. Molten-salt mixtures have good heat-transfer prop- erties compared with organic liquids, and their relative inertness and low vapor pressure give them distinct advantages over 1liquid metals. They are applied in high-temperature fluxes, heat-treatment baths, and electrolytic fuel cells, and as the fuel carrier and coolant for nuclear reactors, such as the Molten-Salt Breeder Reactor (MSBR) experiments.l This report describes an experimental technique for determining a key thermal property of molten salts — thermal conductivity. The study evaluates the method over a broad temperature range using a variety of materials representing a wide range of conductivities. Very few data on the thermal conductivities of molten salts, in varticular, fluoride salts, have been published. Most of the existing measurements for molten fluoride salt mixtures were made by members of the MSBR group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) over 15 years ago.” To extend the scope of the previous measurements, we have developed an ahsolute, variable-gap technique to determine the thermal conductivity of fluoride salt mixtures in ligquid and solid states at temperatures to 1000°C. This technique is particularly well suited to the measurement of the conductivity of low-conducting, semitransparent fluids that must be contained in inert surroundings at elevated temperatures. Most other applicable methods suffer from one or more deficiencies 1f used under these conditidns. The variable-gap technique is examined in detail) and other techniques are discussed briefly. The development of an experimental apparatus is described, and experimental results are presented for the conductivities of several calibrating fluids: Ar, He, heat-transfer salt (HTS), Ha0, and Hg. These fluids represent a very wide range of conductivities [0.4 X 107° to’ 100 X 107° W’cmfl(°C)"1] which were measured over a large temperature range (40 to 950°C). The thermal conductivities of molten flucride salts will be presented in a separate report to be published. 2. METHODS FOR MEASURING MOLTEN-SALT THERMAL, CONDUCTIVITIES Thermal conductivity is one of the most difficult of all thermo- physical properties to determine experimentally. The difficulties primarily are due to the unreliability of temperature measurements, the inadequacy of thermal insulation, and the simultaneous transfer of heat by mechanisms other than conduction. Conductivity can be measured by either steady-state, quasi-steady-state, or transient-state heat flow systems. Experimental determinations using the steady-state methods depend upon the attainmment of suitable boundary conditions that will allow the Taplace equation to be solved for the temperature distribution. The conducltivity is then calculated from the Fourier heat-transfer equation. The transient method requires the solution of the diffusion equation with suitable initial and boundary conditions for the thermal diffusivity co- efficient; the density and heat capacity must be known to calculate the conductivity. The quasi-steady-state methods are based on a solution of *. KNOz -NaNOz ~NaNOg (44-49-7 mole %). the diffusion eguation for unique initial and boundary conditions such that the thermal conductivity can ve directly determined. In addition to conduction, radiation also way be present with trans- parent substances, and the experimental technique must be capable of identifying and separating these two mechanisms. In the case of fluilds, convection may also be present. Thus, only a limited number of experl- mental techniques are available for the determination of the conductivity of fluids. Several techniques found in published investigations are degcribed briefly in the following section, and the technigue used in the present gtudies is described in a later section. selected Technigues for Flulds We will describe briefly each technique and discuss 1its advant a and disadvantages for the measurement of conductivity of molten salts. Transient hot wire In this technigue, the rate of change of ftemperature of a line heat source zltuated in an Infinite medium is used to determine the conduc- tivity of the medium. The line heat source consists of a wire (1 to 5 mils diam) placed axially in a cylinder (2 to 4 cm diam) filled with the specimen. The wire ig heated by a steady current, and its temperature is determined by the change in its electrical resistivity. After an initial transient heating period, the log temperature becomes a linear function of time until natural convection begins to occur. The sleope of this linear function of tewperature wilth time can be related directly to the conductivity of the specimen, Thus, this technique is a gquasi~steady-state technique rather than a transient technique. It is a common technique for determining conductivity of ligquids and has been 5 described in many publications.”™* Tts simplicity, quickness, precision, and accuracy make this tech- nigue useful for most liquids. With molten salts, however, a significant amount of current can be shunted through the szalt itself due to tThe relatively high electrical conductivity of the molten salts at elevated temperatures. Since the degree of current shunting 1s very difficult to predict, molten salt conductivity results obtained by this technique are subject to questions which have not been sufficiently resolved to make it suitable for this application.g Transient hot foil This technique’’® is siailar to the transient hot-wire technique except in two respects: (1) a thin foil is substituted for the fine wire to provide a plane heat source instead of a line source, and (2) the tem- perature is measured with a front-wave-shearing laser interferometer. Because this temperature measuring technique is extremenly sensitive, the heat flux from the foll can be greatly reduced. However, the fluid speci- men must be transparent as well as compatible with the material used in the cell window. The transient hot-foil method is more difficult to apply than the transient hot-wire technique. Tis primary advantage is in the reduction in the molten-salt ionization that results from a lower voltage along the heat source. Consequently, the interface between the heated foill and the molten salt remains polarized and the flow of current into the salt is minimized. In practice, however, other voltage potentials may exist within the cell, and some current will flow into the salt even though the surfaces are polarized. Moreover, operation at elevated temperatures presents formidable problems 1in the design and choice of materials for the cell windows., Diamond is the only transparent material suitavle for use with molten fluoride salts at high temperatures, but its high cost and fabrication difficulties would restrict its use to very small apertures. Neckec-down sample techunique This method® is based on the measurement of the steady-state change in resistance caused by electrical heating of a narrow bridge of the sample mater al which joins two larger bodies of the same material. The theory describling this phenomenon shows that the change in resistance expressed by the voltage drop caused by the heating current does not depend on the detalled shape of the narrow region. A necessary condition, if this is to be true, is that no significant flow of heal occur outside of the boundaries of the sample. For liquids, the narrow bridge 1is N maintained by contalining the liquid in a vessel separated into two parts by o thin wall with a small aperture. The material of the wall must have both a high thermal and a high electrical resistance. The technique is classified as a quasi-steady~-state method. Several uncertainties are associated with the methed, the first of which is the losz of heat by conduction along the thin separating wall. A second major problem arises from the possibility of convection. More- over, with molten salts the possibility of polarization effects also would need to be considered. The important advantages of the technigue are the simplicity of the apparatus, the rapidity with which the measure- ments can be made, and the reduction in the uncertainties in radiation by the small size of the heated region. Taminar heat flow As) The laminar flow method determines the conductivity of a fluid flowing in a circular tube under carefully defined conditions. The wall temperature of the tube 1s maintained uniform while the inlel and outlet temperatures of the fluid are measured. In this method, radiation losses can be neglected and the troublesome measurement of heat flux eliminated. The main problems concern the prediction of velocity and temperature profiles of the fluid at the entrance section of the tube and maintaining a uniform wall temperature., Furthermore, the assumption of constant physical propertiez of the fluid over the temperature range can intro- duce significant error. Most of the published results of this technique differ from the accepted values for thermal conductivity because the hydrodynamic and thermal entry lengths were not properly assessed. ” Parallel wall with this method, the steady heat flow through the specimen and the temperature drop 2eross it are measured. ' 1% The specimen is contained between two parallel walls of plane, cylindrical, or spherical geometry. This method is the most commonly used technique for measuring thermal conductivity. Its seimplicity with regard to the analytic model and experimental setup make it most attractive; however, the uncertainties caused by convection, radiation, and stray heat flow at high temperatures can be considerable. Reducing the heat flow uncertainties by decreasing P the specimen thickness and temperature drop can lead to large errors in -+ these two measurements as well as in the heat flow. Thus, although the method is simple, it requires care in application and way be unsuitable for low-thermal conductivity fluids at high temperatures. ? The Variable~Gap Technique The variable-gap technique for measuring conductivity is a signifi- cant improvement over the parallel wall method in that it takes advantage of the fluidity of the specimen. By use of this technique the specimen thickness can be varied continuously during the operation with a minimum disturbance to the specimen composition or to the system temperature dis- tribution. Also by varying the specimen thickness, the undesirable effectis of several factors, including the errors caused by specimen voidg or inhomogeneities, natural convection, radiative heat transfer, corrosion, deposit formation, radial heat flow, thermocouple location, and thermo- couple drift, can be greatly reduced. Since only the change in the speci- men thickness and the change in the temperature across the specimen is measured, the potential errors of these measurements are smaller and Cthe influence of convection, radiation, and heat losses can be detected and minimized. In addition, the apparatus can be used with little or no modi- fication to measure the conductivities of solids and gases as well as liquids. Considering the advantages of the method, it is surprising that - . . 1 only limited use has been made of the variable-gap technique.*®r14” ° General description The experimental apparatus is shown schematically in Fig. 1. Heat from the main heater travels downward through the liquid sample region (labeled '"variable gap™" in the figure) to a heat sink. Heat flow in the upward and radial directions is minimized by appropriately located guard heaters, and the heat flux into the sample is measured by the voltage and current of the dec power to the main heater. The temperature drop across the gap is determined by thermocouples located on the axial center line in the metal surfaces defining the sample region. The sample thickness is varied by moving the assembly containing the main heater and is measured ORNL- DWG 72-10523R ,LIQUID LEVEL SPACE CONTAINER WAL LS /= SN NP e Ty - B\ J : d GUARD HEATERS oj_._ [ooooooooolanooourf%”oT'—@/’f i X QDDOOO)DOOOO()DOO o \\\\\ RN R\ " ;( N \ \\ ~ -\:‘~-MA|N HEATER .. \\‘ “SVARIABLE GAP ~ . ~. . ~ HEAT SINK x = THERMOCOUPLE LOCATIONS Fig. 1. ©Schematic drawing of a variable-gap thermal conductivity cell. by a precision dial indicator. The system femperature level is main- tained by a surrounding zone-controlled furnace. Tdealized model The measured temperature difference can be resolved into the temper- ature drop across the sample gap; the temperature drops in the metal walls defining the test region; the temperature drops in any solid or gaseous films adhering to the metal surfaces; and errors assocciated with thermo- couple calibration, lead-wire inhomogeneities in thermal gradient regions, and instrument malfunctions. Neglecting the error term, we can write Al = AT+ AT+ AT, (1) S m T where subscripts are sample, metal, and surface film, respectlvely. For the sample region, the temperature difference is AT = (a/A) sx /%, (2) where Q/A is the heat flux, Ox 1s the gap width, and k, is the thermal 3 conductivity of the liquid sample. It is assumed that no natural convec- tion exists in the sample region.

(21)] is greater than about 0.01, a heat shunting factor ¥ is interpolated from the plots of 1L = F vs ax (Figs. 6 and 7) obtained from computer solutions of Eq. (16). From these solutions, the percentage of shunted heat, 1 = F, is found to te very nearly proportional to " Thus, the heat shunting factor for any degree of guard heating is calculated using the results from only one heat shunting factor at G = 0.5: _ = (/0,508 _ _ - (L =7), = (6/0.5)°° (1 =F)y o5 (23) The heat flux is then calculated as §/A = F (Q'/A) and the total thermal resistance is AT/(Q/A), where AT is the previously defined total temper- ature difference across the specimen. The total thermal resistance is then plotted as a function of the specimen thickness for a given specimen temperature. The specimen temper- ature is defined as the average of the upper and lower plate temperature and both the specimen temperature and the measured heat flux are keot nearly constant as the specimen thickness is varied (see Experimental Procedures ). Three methods were used to determine the slope of the resistance curve at M = O. First, visual inspection of the curve gave good results when the data were smooth and the resistance curve was linear. Second, when the curve was not linear, numerical finite-difference techniques were used to obtain the slope at Ax = 0. In the third method the data were fitted to Eg. (9) [or Eg. (10) if k = 0] if adequate information of the optical properties of the specimen were known. *The total wire length between voltage taps includes two 0.875-in.- long lead wires. 22 Meost of the data reported in this study were analyzed by visual in- spection or the third method mentioned above. The data were fitted to Eq. (9) in fhe following way. The fixed resistance, ér_[l._.. ) (Q/A o is found by extrapolating the thermal resistance vs Ax to Ax = O; the plate emissivities are determined by carrying out the experimental pro- cedure with the conductivity cell evacuated; and the index of refraction is taken from the literature, an average n over the range of Infrared- wavelengths. From an estimate of the conductivity by visual inspection of the data for /s < 0.1, the absorptivity, E, can then be found from fitting Eq. (9) to the larger values of Ax. Using these values of the fixed resistance, the plate emissivities, the average index of refraction, and the calculated absorptivity, the thermal conductivity is determined by the best fit of the data over the complete range of Ax. 3.

The description of the thermal conductivity cell itself is sufficiently complete To permit duplication; however, cnly unusual auxiliary equipment is discussed in detail.

The cylinderical component was machined from three pisces of stain- less steel tyope 304 and welded together ag shown.

Similar heaters are placed around the cylinder at the level of the salt for the radial guard heaters. Figure 12 shows the location and designaticons of the thermocouples and heaters. Several dimensions of the cylinder component are maintained in close tolerances to insure that the specimen thickness is uniform across the diameter (Fig. A-1). The cylinder is gbout % in. oD x 3.5 in. ID, and 12 in. long. The firnal machining of these surfaces was made after the entire cylinder had bveen dimensionally stabilizea by heat treatment. The mobille piston component containing the main heater assembly is snown in detail in Fig. A-2 in Appendix A. The main heater is con- structed with 10-mil Pt—10% Rh wife, wound, embedded, and buried in a high-density Al,0; insulator. A duplicate heater, the main guard heater, sits above the main heater. Beltween these two heaters ig a 1/16Min. gap contalning three platinum-foll radiation shields. The temperature across this gap is monitored by two thermocouples and balanced with the guard heater to prevent axial heat Joss. A gold foll provides high conteact conductance between the main heater and the bottom of the piston con- tainer. All the electrical wiring, the platinum wire, and the thermo- couples extend through a hollow rod connecting the piston with the upper plate and support. A flexible vellows welded to the piston rod and the upper flange allows mobility of the piston while providing a vacuum tight seal. The vertical movement of the piston is adjusted by a threaded nut whose microthreads are precision machined. The vertical movement of the piston is measured with a dial indicator connected to the vocttom of the piston with a fused quartz rod to minimize the effect of thermal expansion.

Operating Procedure — Solid Specimen If the measurements are made with the specimen in the solid state, the specimen is melted before each gap spacing is selected, and then the gap spacing is fixed by cooling the specimen to the desired temperature. 5. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS The experimental results from this study dewonstrate the successful development of the variable-gap technique for the measurements of molten- salt thermal conductivities. Concurrently with the development of the method, we measured conductivities of several molten fluoride salt mix- tures which will be precented in a subsequent report. _X,. In some cases the radial guard heating was inadequate to reduce the radial AT to < x1°C, and a correction for heat shunting was necessary (Chapter 2). L i The thermal conductivities of five materials were determined over a temperature range from 38 to O46°C for a total of 31 series of measure- ments. Argon, helium, water, HTS,* and mercury were selected to calibrate the apparatus because thelr conductivities are well established and cover a wide vange of values: 0.4 X 107° to 100 x 107° W em ™ (°C)™*. The con- ductivity of HTS is not as well established a value as those of the other substances. However, HTS can be heated to temperatures required to melt the fluoride salt mixtures. WNearly 350 measurements were made of the thermal resistance as a function of specimen thickness to obtain the 31 determinations of conductivity. In addition, another 50 measurements of resistance vs thickness were made with the system evacuated to evaluate the surface emissivities. The original and reduced data are presented in Tables B~1 to B-22 in Appendix B. 'The data were reduced as indicated In the method of cal- culation in Chapter 2. 'The total thermal resistance is plotted as a function of the specimen thickness, and the thermal conductivity is deter- mined from the reciprocal sglope as the specimen thickness approaches zero. Thermal Resgistance Curves Several representative plots of total thermal resistance as a func- tion of specimen thickness are shown in Figs. 16 to 20. At the lower temperature the thermal resistance 1s a linear function, asg shown in Figs. 16 and 17 for mercury at 60.8°C and HTS at 197°C. At the higher temperatures, the influence of infrared radiation on the heat transfer can be seen by the curvature of the resistance curve for HIS and argon at 526°C and helium at 9k6°C (Figs. 18 to 20). The fixed thermal resistance of the conductivity cell, AT ————— a/b /s varies from 5 Tor mercury to 30 for argon.

Model I-A was operated several months at tempera- tures up to 800°C with fluoride salt mixtures during a time between mercury and HI'S calibration runs. The Chromel-Alumel thermocouples of model I-A would be expected to show significant emf drift under these conditions. Thermal resistance as a function of gap spacing with the cell evacuated is shown in Fig. 21 for two temperature levels (200 and 510°C) and two values of heat flux (0.100 and 0.224 W cm ®)., The values of the specimen resistance (i.e., total minus fixed resistance) were used for the evacuated runs. The expected lack of variation of the resistance as a function of the gap spacing can be seen in the figure. A slight change in the emissivity of the plate surfaces will account for the small dif- ference 1In the resistance between the two heat flux values at 20C°C. The total hemispherical emissivity e, calculated from the thermal resis- tance using Eq. (10) in Chapter 2 (assuming equal emissivity for the two plates), varied from O.4 to 0.5.

FEstimated standard and maximum error limits in the con-~ ductivity with and without radiative heat transfer over 300 to 900°C range. measurements for Apparatus III-B vs specimen conductivities shnown are experimental deviations from published values. Also Ly Figure 22 shows also the deviations of each of the experimental re- sults from the published values. Several points are outside of the estimated error limits (the conductivity of solid HTS was discussed in the previous section). Data for water and mercury were obtained using Apparatus I-A, in which Chromel-Alumel thermocouples were used. Since the uncertainty of the temperature measured with the Chromel-Alumel thermocouples is four times of that from Pt vs Pt—10% Rh thermocouples, The error limits for Apparatus I-A are considerably larger than for TII-B, especially at the higher specimen conductivities. Excluding these points, 93% of the data lies within the maximum error limits and 687 within the standard error limits. Adequacy of the kxperimental Apparatus The experimental apparatus proved extremely durable despite its complex design. Model I-A endured 500 hr of operation with a fluoride salt mixture at temperatures ranging from 500 to 800°C and for 850 hr with HTS at temperatures from 200 to 500°C before failure of a thermo- couple required the replacement of the heater assembly. Model II-A suffered a weld failure in the heater assembly after 1000 hr of opera- tion with helium and argon at temperatures from 200 to 950°C and 80C hr with fluoride salt mixtures from 500 to 850°C. Model ITI-B is still in operating condition after nearly 3000 hr with fluoride salt mixtures at temperatures from 500 to 960°C. We previously noted that a duvual quartz-rod dial-indicator system would be able to account for thermal expansion of the cell in meacsuring specimen thicknesses at low conductivity. For such measurements, the upper and lower plate surfaces should be polished to a mirror finish also. The accuracy and precision of the conductivity values could possibly be improved by measuring the heat flux departing from the specimen. This heat flux can be determined by the usuval means of measuring the temper- ature drop along a well-insulated rod of known conductivity. By meas- uring botn the heat flux entering and leaving the specimen, the effect of heat shunting on the determination should be reduced. (. CONCLUSIONS Designed ap it is for specialized thermal conductivity measurements with molten fluoride salt mixtures from 500 to 1000°C, the variable-gap apparatus has demonstrated remarkable versatility. Ixperimental results agree with published results within an average deviation of +5% for a wide variety of specimens (solids, liquids, and gases), specimen conductivities [0.4 x 107° to 100 % 107 W em > (°C)™ ], and temperature levels (4O to 950°C). In addition, the variable-gap apparatus has demonstrated its ability to distinguish and evaluate the internal radiation within small infrared absorbing fluids. Considering the wide range of application and the accuracy of the variable-gap method, it is surprising to find so few references to it in the literature. The experimental measurements of the conductivity of several fluoride salt mixtures made concurrently with the present study will be reported in a later publication.

APPENDICIES APPENDIX A ADDITIONAL DETAILS OF DESIGN OF THE APPARATUS Sufficient detail is given in this section of the Appendix that the thermal conductivity cell can be duplicated. Details of the various components are shown in Figs. A-1 and A-2. The discussion of the methods in Chapter 2 and Appendix C suggests that the geometry of the apparatus exerts considerable effect of the accuracy of the conductivity determination. However, in most cases consequences of gross size, corrosion, and high-temperature strength counteract other changes which might improve its accuracy. We concentrsted on minimizing stray heat flow because the heat-transfer model is unidimen- sional. The cylinder containing the specimen is constructed from stainless steel (304) and is illustrated in Fig. A-1. The dimensions of the cylinder were selected to minimize heat shunting around the specimen without sacrificing its structural integrity. The length of the cylinder was chosen to fit a standard furnace, 5 in. ID X 18 in. long, so that the specimen would occupy its center. A uniform air gap, 3/32 in., between the cylinder and the sink provides an even heat flux distribution to the sink. The mobile heat assembly, shown in Fig. A-2, is designed to reduce the upward flow of heat from the specimen area. The most important part of the assembly is the Alz0; heater core machined from a high-purity, high- density Al,; 045 ceramic. The core is fabricated in two pieces and is designed so that a 60-in. length of 0.010-in.-diam Pt—-10% Rh wire could be uniformly wound on each piece forming the main and guard heaters. The grooves con- taining the wires were then filled with Al;0; cement and fired. The sur- face of the main heater was ground flat and smooth. Several dimensions of the mobile heat assembly were closely controlled to insure a uniform specimen thickness. These are shown in Fig. A-2. Other considerations contributing to the design of the apparatus in- clude the ease of assembly and disassembly and the convenience of filling, 52 7.000 DIAM ORNL-DWG 72-10543 SURFACE "x" Yie X 45° CHAMFER TR l} A%\\ -------------- %R 720 1111V ISR ; g 2% 7 2 7 7 Yg TYP. - % 7 2 2 9'Y, 32 fre————— 3203 DIAM [&] oorrvoneee - 132 REF. % GROOVES FOR Y4 in.0D S.S.

All these data are grouped by specimen and apparatus model nmumbers (Table 1), and appear in chronoclogical order.

The plate-to-plate temperature drop was determined from the total drop minus the estimated wall temperature drops and was used to calculate the thermal resistance. If the average temperature level varied significantly in the vacuum runs, the calculated thermal resistances were normalized to a mean average temperature by the ratio i‘[ i '3 max T mean where T is in °K. 56 Table B-1.

Further- more, the error in Y_ e/T can be evaluated as 2 a(y/r) ( av 1) (d‘ @s_>+ e dy de Y/T Y dT K X Y de € Finally, the total error in the conductivity would be approximately, a(Q’/n) a ar aF gk _dx [(1 + ehrx)/k)}s / - 5X X wi(k/x) + ehr] X L - k b ( Q' /A Al F SEC eh x 2dn 34T T dy E--(EAE DGR e F F k + eh x n T Y dT X O r dk dx e dY de ( (f"+——>+(m -------------- ) - K X Y de e s The magnitude or the error in the conductivity 1s dependent on the specimen thickness. Some of the uncertaintles increase and others decrease with a change in specimen thickness. Therefore,there should be an optimum tnickness that would minimize the errors associated with it. The errors are also dependent on the magnitude of the thermal conductivity, the fixed resistance, and eh_ . T The error in the conductivity measurements now considered refers to . , RN the apparatus model III-B for various values of x, k, eh , and AT/F(Q /A) T observed in the present studies. Using the accuracy limitls listed in Table 2 and the tolerance limits shown in Figs. A-1 and A-2, the error terms appearing in Eg. (C-3) can be determined as follows: Temperature level dT/T = +0.2% (published error for Pt vs Pt—~10% Rh thermocouple) The potentiometer and other temperature measuring errors can be neglected in comparison with the thermocouple error. Temperature differences AAT = (a0/T) dT, or AAT/AT = dT/T = %0.2% (Pt vs Pt—10% Rh thermocouple) Measured heat flux 0/ /A = WEVI/(rDP) = MEV(Vy/Q)/(nD?) a(e'/a) a8 _av _da _2dap 9N = e S + Q' /A E vV Q D W dV/V = dVy /Vy = +(10)(0.01) = +0.1% (maximum error), A/ 1 £0.04%, aD/D it +(0.005 % 100)/3.25 = #0.15, dE/T = +(0.25 X 100)/60 = 0.42% (uncertainty in heater wire length = +0.25 il’l.).

Radiation function The expression for Y/t 1is quite complex [Eg. (8)]; fortunately, for e =0.5and v < 5, Y/T is very nearly a constant and for 7 > 10 is very nearly equal to 1/r. Thus, the error in Y/t due to an uncertainty in = can be neglected, except in the narrow interval 5 < 7 > 10. Furthermore, the maximum value of the term edY/Yde =1, so that the error in Y/t is primarily due to the uncertainty in the surface emissivity of the upper and lower plates. Surface emissivity de/e = +(0.05 X 100)/0.45 = +11.1% (estimated from the vacuum measurements, see Chapter 5).

The uncertainty in the temperature weasure- ments comprises the primary source of errors in the high conductivity measurements . The minimum error from Flg. C-1 occurs in the vicinity of x = 0.05 cm. Consequently, most of the experimental data were taken for specimen thicknesses of Jless than 0.1 em. A plot of the estimated error limits as a function of specimen conductivity for a specimen thickness of 0.05 cm is shown in Fig. 22, Chapter 6, for the maximum and standard error, where (dk /%) = error . / ‘max 2; ( (I>n O 3 Ll =W . e N0 CO—3 Oh = - 2oy ~, 2 oY aagEEqmn Tt oE s T :__?: 3 gMEPEHOGHUES W EH TSIy IS == s > INTERNAL DISTRIBUTION .
