摘要
Based on the microstructure features of xonotlite-type micro-pore calcium silicate, two unit cell models, the point-contact hollow spherical model and the surface-contact hollow cubic model, are developed. As one of several excellent insulation materials, xonotlite is represented as porous media with hollow spherical agglomerates. By one-dimensional heat conduction analysis using theunit cell, the effective thermal conductivity of xonotlite is determined. The results show that both of the models are in agreement with experimental data. The algebraic expressions based on the unit cell models can be used to calculate the effective thermal conductivity of porous media that have similar structure features as xonotlite.
