Presentation Description: Heat (e.g., thermal energy) management is an ineradicable part of any engineering solution. In all cases, the challenge ranges from providing unrestricted heat flow to full thermal insulation. Energy efficiency depends on detailed knowledge and understanding of the design for heat management. Practical solutions are based on well-developed and recently crafted materials. Contemporary engineering requirements can only be met by composite materials or by complex material combinations. The biggest challenges arise due to limited data and our imperfect ability to model heat propagation through material interfaces. There is a limited understanding and faculty to design complex materials for their thermal properties. The solution is to measure heat propagation reliably in the most adverse circumstances. Inomorph Ltd presents InoTherm, an instrument that measures thermal conductivity fast and reliably for solids, liquids and pastes. We will provide and discuss examples of thermal conductivity measurements for a broad selection of materials. InoTherm can also be used to assess thermoelectric materials by measuring the Seebeck voltage. The instrument can support the development and provide a quality assessment of advanced ceramics, thermal interface materials (TIM), rechargeable batteries. and thermal insulation.
