Abstract: | This paper examined experimentally and theoretically the thermal diffusibility (α), heat capacity (CP1) at a constant pressure (1 atm, 101.33 kPa) and thermal conductivity (κ=CP1α) for the porous mullite ceramics with 0–55% porosity in a wide temperature range from 298 to 1073 K. The change in the κ values with temperature or porosity for the porous mullite was similar to the temperature dependence or porosity dependence of the α values, which were greatly reduced by the air included in the pores. The κ values for the porous mullite were theoretically analyzed with two model structures of pore–dispersed mullite continuous phase system (A model) and mullite–dispersed pore continuous phase system (B model). The measured κ values at 0–23% porosity agreed well with the κ values calculated for model A structure. In the high porosity range from 33% to 55%, the measured κ values deviated from the κ curve calculated for model A structure and approached the κ value curve for model B structure with increasing porosity. The real microstructure of 30–60% porosity is equivalent to the mixed microstructure of model A and model B for the thermal conductivity measurement. |
