Thermal conductivity is crucial in determining a material’s ability to transfer heat, which is essential for optimizing energy efficiency and predicting thermal performance across various industries. Thermal property measurements also provide valuable information about a material’s composition, purity, and structure. The steady-state method directly measures thermal conductivity by applying a temperature difference across the tested material and measuring the average heat flux through it. The FOX Series of heat flow meters is designed to measure insulating materials and conforms to international standards such as ASTM C518, ISO 8301, and DIN EN 12667. It features solid-state heating and cooling of plates, thin film heat flux transducers, and four optical encoders, ensuring accurate measurement of heat flow for a wide range of sample dimensions.
