The calculated value of the thermal conductivity of the carbon nano tube was found as: KCN = 3113 W/m-K, however, the theoretical value of the thermal conductivity of the wire is actually: K = 4500 W/m-K and the island separation is 5 μm (this is the actual spacing between the two islands). The difference between the measured and theoretical values is due to the contact resistance between the nano tube and the islands in the experiment. Required:
a. Calculate the thermal contact resistance (Rtd) that exists between the carbon nano tube and the top surfaces of the heated and sensing islands.
b. Using the value of thermal contact resistance calculated in part A, calculate the fraction of the total resistance between the heated and sensing islands that is due to the thermal contact resistances for island separation distance of 5, 10, 15, and 20 μm.

a) 1,607,973.9  K/W

b)

i)  0.3082 = 30.82%

ii)  0.1821 = 18.21%

iii)  0.1293 = 12.93%

iv)  0.1002 = 10.02%

Explanation:

Value of thermal conductivity ( calculated value ) KCN  = 3113 W/m-k

Thermal conductivity ( theoretical value ) K = 4500 W/m-k

Island separation = 5 μm

a) Determine the thermal contact resistance

Resistance due to contact between carbon nano tube and top surfaces can be determined using the relation below

( I / A*K ) + 2Rc  =  ( l / A*KCN ) ------- ( 1 )

where ; I = 5 * 10^-6 m

A = π * ( 14 * 10^-9 )^2 m^2  = 153.93 * 10^-18 , K = 4500 , KCN = 3113

input  values into equation 1 above

hence Rc = 1,607,973.9  K/W

b) Determine fraction of total resistance between heated and sensing

fraction of total resistance ; f1 =

where : Rc = 1607973.9,  K = 4500, A =  153.93 * 10^-18 ,  

i) for I = 5 * 10^-6 m  

fraction = 0.3082 = 30.82%

ii) for I = 10 * 10^-6 m

fraction = 0.1821 = 18.21%

iii) for I = 15 * 10^-6 m

fraction = 0.1293 = 12.93%

iv) for  I = 20*10^-6

fraction = 0.1002 = 10.02%

answer:

science is the study of the nature and behavior of natural things and the knowledge that we obtain about them. a science is a particular branch of science such as physics, chemistry, or biology. physics is the best example of a science which has developed strong, abstract theories.

pseudoscience is a collection of beliefs or practices mistakenly regarded as being based on scientific method.
