Abstract

A new method for instantaneous measurement of three thermophysical parameters of solids in situ is proposed. The measurement principle is based on a transient heat conduction model of a thermal probe point contacting a testing body. The measurement of temperature response has been made using the probe of a sheathed K‐type thermocouple in this experiment. Ratios of both thermal conductivity and thermal effusivity between the probe and the testing body are determined from curve‐fitting with the theoretical response to the measured one. As a result, it is shown that the measurement is reproducible and the accuracies of measured thermophysical parameters are good enough to apply this method to many kinds of solids. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
