Micro-beam sensor for detection of thermal conductivity of gases and liquids (original) (raw)

This research introduces a novel micro-beam sensor designed for the detection of thermal conductivity in gases and liquids, leveraging a miniature design that significantly reduces sample volume. It builds on the established transient hot-wire method, optimizing sensor dimensions and configurations to enhance measurement speed and accuracy, while also facilitating in situ assessments. The developed sensor demonstrates promising capabilities for determining thermal conductivity with minimal error through numerical simulations.
