The two constituent phases of the nanofluids have thermal expansion coefficients that are significantly different. Moreover, the variability of the thermal expansion coefficients of fluids with temperature is significantly higher than that of solid materials. The mismatch of the thermal expansion coefficients creates changes of the volumetric fraction of solids with temperature changes. The changes can be significant with fluids that have high thermal expansion coefficients, such as refrigerants and fluids that operate close to their critical points. Since the thermal conductivity of nanofluids is a very strong function of the volumetric fraction of the nanoparticles, these changes of the volumetric fraction may cause significant effects on the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids, which must be accounted for in any design process.

Abstract The critical requirements for the environmental barrier coating (EBC) materials of silicon-based ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) including good tolerance to harsh environments, thermal expansion match with the interlayer mullite, good high-temperature phase stability and low thermal conductivity. Cuspidine-structured rare-earth aluminates RE4Al2O9 have been considered as candidates of EBCs for their superior mechanical and thermal properties, but the phase transition at high temperatures is a notable drawback of these materials. To suppress the phase transition and improve the phase stability, a novel cuspidine-structured rare-earth aluminate solid solution (Nd0.2Sm0.2Eu0.2Y0.2Yb0.2)4Al2O9 was designed and successfully synthesized inspired by entropy stabilization effect of high entropy ceramics. The as-synthesized (Nd0.2Sm0.2Eu0.2Y0.2Yb0.2)4Al2O9 exhibits close thermal expansion coefficient (6.96×10-6 /K at 300-1473 K) to that of mullite, good phase stability from 300 K to 1473 K, and low thermal conductivity (1.50 W·m-1·K-1 at room temperature). In addition, strong anisotropic thermal expansion has been observed compared to Y4Al2O9 and Yb4Al2O9. The mechanism for low thermal conductivity is attributed to the lattice distortion and mass difference of the constituent atoms while the anisotropic thermal expansion is due to the anisotropic chemical bonding enhanced by the large size rare earth cations.

The Relationship

In this study, the thermal properties of the gaskets, which were used for designing the bolted flange joints, such as effective thermal conductivity, specific heat, linear thermal expansion coefficient and so on were measured. Especially, the effective thermal conductivities were measured by using the heat flow method. The relationship between the gasket structure and the thickness was shown by using an equivalent thermal resistance, and an empirical equation of effective thermal conductivity, which was related to the bulk density and absolute temperature, was proposed by deriving the heat conduction in solid, radiation and gas. Also, in the measurement of the linear thermal expansion coefficients of the gaskets, the measured values were shown to change substantially below 150 °C, and to depend on the heating rate and the load applied on the gasket sample.

Gd2O3 (10mol%) doped SrHfO3 (Sr (Hf0.9Gd0.1)O2.95) was synthesized by solid state reaction method. The phase stability of the synthesized Sr (Hf0.9Gd0.1)O2.95 powder at high temperature of 1450 oC for a long period and in a temperature range of RT-1400 oC was characterized by XRD and DSC, respectively. The thermal expansion coefficients (TECs) of bulk Sr (Hf0.9Gd0.1)O2.95 were recorded by a high-temperature dilatometer, indicating that the phase transitions of SrHfO3 are suppressed remarkably by doping Gd2O3. The thermal conductivity of bulk Sr (Hf0.9Gd0.1)O2.95 at 1000 oC is ~1.95 W/m·K, which is ~11% lower than that of bulk 8YSZ.

The aim of this paper is to (1) introduce an approach, called Polytope Sector-based Synthesis, for synthesizing 2D or 3D microstructural architectures that exhibit a desired bulk-property directionality (e.g., isotropic, cubic, orthotropic, etc.), and (2) provide general analytical methods that can be used to rapidly optimize the geometric parameters of these architectures such that they achieve a desired combination of bulk thermal conductivity and thermal expansion properties. Although the methods introduced can be applied to general beam-based microstructural architectures, we demonstrate their utility in the context of an architecture that can be tuned to achieve a large range of extreme thermal expansion coefficients — positive, zero, and negative. The material-property-combination region that can be achieved by this architecture is determined within an Ashby-material-property plot of thermal expansion vs. thermal conductivity using the analytical methods introduced. Both 2D and 3D versions of the design have been fabricated using projection microstereolithography.
