Transport Phenomenon (Electrical and Thermal) in two allotropic forms of Carbon (Diamond and Graphite) Graphite and Diamond both are formed from carbon (two allotropic forms of carbon). Though they have similar constituent element‚ they differ a lot in their properties. Diamond is a good thermal conductor but a bad electrical conductor‚ while graphite is a bad thermal conductor but a good electrical conductor. This is one example of their property difference. The difference in their properties

Electrical technology – assignment 4 Properties of electrical materials and Effective use of technology P.5. Describe the properties and a typical application of a solid and a liquid or gas electrical conductor. A conductor is a material that allows free movement of electrons and therefore allows easy flow of electricity. Most conductors are metals. A common metal used as a conductor in electrical technology is aluminium. It is used quite a lot as it cheap‚ lightweight and in abundance compared

ELECTRICAL SUBSTATION A substation is a part of an electrical generation‚transmission and distribution system. Substations transform voltage from high to low‚ or the reverse‚ or perform any of several other important functions. Electric power may flow through several substations between generating plant and consumer‚ and its voltage may change in several steps. Substations may be owned and operated by a transmission or generation electrical utility‚ or may be owned by a large industrial or commercial

Thermal Conductivity of Metals and Non-metals 1. Introduction Thermal conductivity is a physical property of materials of great importance. Unlike some physical properties‚ however‚ thermal conductivity cannot be directly measured. In order to determine a material’s thermal conductivity‚ intermediate quantities must be determined from which the conductivity may be ultimately calculated. The objective of this lab was to determine the thermal conductivity of metals. To do so‚ it was necessary to study
