Figure 3

Hot disk transient plane heat source probe and sample assembly. Drawings (A and C) and photos (B and D) of the hot disk probe with a bifilar spiral element, representing both the plane heat source and temperature sensor and sample assembly used for thermal property measurements at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure conditions. A 500-g weight was applied on the top of the assembly to attain good contact between the core samples and the probe (D).
