In this paper, effect of using metallic additives on thermal conductivity of granular activated carbon has been investigated. Fillings of iron, copper and aluminum at different mass concentrations ranging from 10 to 30% have been studied. The thermal conductivity of the combinations has been estimated experimentally. The thermal conductivity has been increased with the increase in metal concentrations. A mathematical ... Read more

In this paper, a general finite element model is proposed to analyze transient phenomena in thermoelastic model in the context of the theory of generalized thermoelasticity with one relaxation time with variable thermal conductivity. An application of an infinitely long annular cylinder was studied, where the inner surface is traction free and subjected to thermal shock, while the outer surface ... Read more
