Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of pulse-heated W-Re alloys
Results are reported for the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity as a function of temperature for four W-Re alloys (4.0, 21.24, 24.07, and 31.09 mass % of Re) over a wide temperature range covering the solid and liquid states. The measurements allow the determination of specific heat and dependences among electrical resistivity, temperature, and density of the alloys into the liquid phase. The thermal conductivity is calculated using the Wiedman-Franz law. Additionally, data for thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the constituent elements, tungsten and rhenium, are presented for the first time. Both metals have been previously studied with the same experimental technique.
