An Investigative Review on Thermal Characterization of Hybrid Metal Matrix Composites
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
Composite materials have become cynosure among all materials that have applications in profusion. The applications of these materials are absolutely appreciative and applicable in almost all areas of mechanical engineering. The mechanical characterization of these materials has become common nowadays. But the thermal characterization of hybrid metal matrix composites is increasingly important in a wide range of applications. Aluminium Silicon alloys in particular finds extensive and increased applications in industries due to their properties viz., high fluidity, low melting point, high strength, corrosion resistance, good casting characteristics and lower coefficient of thermal expansion. In the present scenario, research work is accomplished on hybrid composites based on mechanical properties but very limited research has been carried out on hybrid composite based on thermal properties and characterization. The thermal analysis of hybrid metal matrix composites is required to clearly examine the thermal properties viz., Thermal Conductivity, Temperature Difference, Thermal Capacity or Heat Difference, Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and Rate of Heat Transfer. Thermal Analysis is also often used as a term for the study of Heat Transfer to measure Heat capacity and Thermal Conductivity.
