Thermal Conductivity Of Guarded Hot Plate Method For AAC Blocks

Description
Scope of Supply
Document Attach

This Thermal Conductivity Apparatus is specifically designed to measure the thermal conductivities of insulating materials in slab form. The apparatus features a central heater sandwiched between two test specimens, with cooling plates on either side. A single, identical specimen is clamped securely between the heater and cooling plate. Additionally, a ring guard heater ensures unidirectional heat flow through the specimen, providing accurate and reliable results.
