Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book examines the thermal conductivity of terra cotta fireproofing by studying the heat loss of burnt clay balls at temperatures reaching 1100 degrees Celsius. Using Neumann's method, the author employs thermocouples to measure temperature changes within the balls, which are then used to calculate heat conductivity. The author also determines the specific heat and density of the clay used in the balls. While the study finds no correlation between heat loss and grog additions or sizes due to advanced vitrification, it provides valuable insights for the optimization of fireproofing materials using this method. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
