FAQS 4

What is the thermal conductivity of glasses?

The thermal conductivity of glasses is a key property for many and diverse technological applications, including, e.g., the microelectronics1, pharmaceutical2, aerospace3,4, optics5, and construction6 industries.

How does solar irradiation affect the thermal behavior of Colored Glasses?

Solar irradiation can induce different process on glasses. In this study, the thermal behavior of colored glasses (colorless, red, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, purple, and brown) were characterized by UV-vis-IR spectrophotometry, thermal conductivity-meter, infrared thermocamera and dilatometry.

Which glasses have the highest thermal conductivity?

Therefore, higher thermal conductivity, higher the heating rate. As is showed in Table 3, brown, green, blue and turquoise glasses possess the highest thermal conductivities, which correspond to the larger heating rates. The heating mechanisms that govern glasses are based on the interactions between the vibration modes.

Can thermal conductivity be predicted from first principles?

Predicting the thermal conductivity of glasses from first principles has hitherto been a very complex problem.
