摘要
Porous media containing gas-filled inclusions embedded in a solid phase constitute an important class of natural or artificial materials of both theoretical and practical interest. In these materials, thermal conductivity is one of the most important properties. In a variety of situations of practical interest, when the characteristic size of gas-filled inclusions is comparable with the mean free path of gas molecules and when the slip flow regime is considered, the behavior of gas near solid surfaces cannot be described by classical thermal conductivity equations. In fact, the boundary conditions at the solid surfaces must be modified by considering that the temperature and normal heat flux simultaneously suffer a discontinuity. The first purpose of the present work is to develop an efficient and accurate micromechanical model capable of estimating the effective conductivity of porous materials while taking into account the discontinuities of the temperature and normal heat flux across solid surfaces and the non-spherical form of gas-filled inclusions. The second purpose of the present work is to study the dependencies of the effective conductivity on the size and shape of gas-filled inclusions. By applying the micromechanical model based on the differential scheme and by using the solution results obtained for auxiliary dilute problem accounting for modified boundary conditions on surface solids, the closed-form expression for the effective conductivity is obtained. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the dependence of the effective conductivity on the size and shape of gas-filled inclusions in the case of randomly oriented inclusions.
