Abstract The needle probe test, as a thermal conductivity measurement method, has become very popular in recent years. In the present study, the efficiency of this methodology, for the case of composite materials, is investigated based on the numerical simulations. The material under study is a two-phase composite with periodic microstructure of “matrix-inclusion” type. Two-scale analysis, incorporating micromechanics approach, is performed. First, the effective thermal conductivity of the composite considered is found by the solution of the appropriate boundary value problem stated for the single unit cell. Next, numerical simulations of the needle probe test are carried out. In this case, two different locations of the measuring sensor are considered. It is shown that the “equivalent” conductivity, derived from the probe test, is strongly affected by the location of the sensor. Moreover, comparing the results obtained for different scales, one can notice that the “equivalent” conductivity cannot be interpreted as the effective one for the composites considered. Hence, a crude approximation of the effective property is proposed based on the volume fractions of constituents and the equivalent conductivities derived from different sensor locations.

The present study compares the temperature distribution within cylindrical samples heated in microwave furnace with those achieved in radiatively-heated (conventional) furnace. Using a two-dimensional finite difference approach the thermal profiles were simulated for cylinders of varying radii (0.65, 6.5, and 65 cm) and physical properties. The influence of susceptor-assisted microwave heating was also modeled for the same. The simulation results reveal differences in the heating behavior of samples in microwaves. The efficacy of microwave heating depends on the sample size and its thermal conductivity.

AbstractThis paper aims to investigate the heating behaviors of Y-TZP arrays under microwave irradiation. In this study, a three-dimensional numerical model of the microwave heating system was developed by COMSOL Multiphysics software. The numerical model was verified by microwave heating experiment, and the average root means square errors (RMSE) between the simulation and experimental data also confirmed the reliability of the model. The varying position and arrays of materials were applied to predict and visualize the three-dimensional distribution of the electromagnetic field and temperature during the microwave heating process. The results show that the temperature field distribution in microwave cavity was highly sensitive to the dielectric materials, the arrangement of the Y-TZP array interfered with the distribution of standing waves. The results can serve as references for the study to design and optimize the ceramic’s application in terms of microwave heating.
