Abstract

Thermal-conductivity, linear-thermal-expansion, specific-heat, and density values are reported for the following materials: white (clear) plate glass, Pyrex No. 774, Solex 2808X, Solex S, Grades 7087 and GBH graphite, fused silica, and Vycor. Calculated values of the thermal diffusivity are reported for all of the above materials except the Grades 7087 and GBH graphite. The temperature range covered is, in general, from -250 deg to about 1000 deg F. The upper temperature for both graphites was extended to 3000 deg F for the thermal expansion and specific heat measurements, and to 1800 deg F for the thermal conductivities. (auth)
