In this article, we present a bird's eye view of applications of photothermal techniques for
evaluation of the thermal properties of different materials. This is followed by the …

Mixtures of hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) are given in many technical applications
where accurate thermophysical property data are required for the design and optimization of …

The role played by physical parameters governing the transport of heat in periodical time-
varying phenomena within solids is discussed. Starting with a brief look at the conduction …

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is popular sensing material because of its unique
piezoelectric characteristics. In this work an impact sensor was prepared from a sandwiched …

In this paper, we describe a new, simple, and fast photothermal method for detecting the
presence of adulterants in commercial gasolines. The method consists essentially of …

Results are presented from a basic heat transport experiment using a magnetized electron
temperature filament that behaves as a thermal resonator. A small, crystal cathode injects …

Results are presented from basic heat transport experiments using a magnetized electron

A general description of the photoacoustic (PA) technique applied to characterize thermal
properties of liquids is presented. The effects of different supporting substrates on …

A method suitable for the thermal characterization of gases is described. It is based on
thermal wave interference (TWI) in a cavity. A TWI device was constructed and the thermal …

The effects produced by absorption of an intensity modulated CO 2 laser in CO 2‐N 2
mixture are investigated here by means of the photothermal deflection technique. The …
