Abstract

A study was conducted of the thermal diffusivity' specific heat and thermal conductivity of a uniaxially carbon-fibre-reinforced lithia-alumino-silicate glass-ceramic. The thermal diffusivity and conductivity parallel to the fibre direction was found to be independent of thermal history and more than an order of magnitude higher than in the transverse directions. During the first thermal cycle, the thermal diffusivi1y transverse to the fibre direction was found to exhibit a decrease attributed to crack formation under the influence of internal stresses. The transverse thermal diffusively on thermal cycling to 1000° C exhibited lower values during heating than during subsequent cooling. This hysteresis was attributed to a thermal history-dependent barrier to heat flow at the matrix-fibre interface. The thermal conductivity of the fibres along their length inferred from composite theory was found to be much lower than the corresponding value for pyrolytic graphite, attributed to less than complete graphitization and associated high density of lattice defects which act as phonon scatterers.
