| Abstract | In situ planetary thermal conductivity measurements are typically made using a long needle-like probe, which measures effective thermal conductivity in the probe’s radial (horizontal) direction. The desired effective vertical thermal conductivity for heat flow calculations is assumed to be the same as the measured effective horizontal thermal conductivity. However, it is known that effective thermal conductivity increases with increasing compressive pressure on granular beds and the horizontal stress in a granular bed under gravity is related to the vertical stress through Jaky’s at rest earth pressure coefficient. The objectives of this study were to examine the validity of the isotropic property assumption and to develop a fundamental understanding of the effective thermal conductivity of a dry, noncohesive granular bed under uniaxial compression. A model was developed to predict the increase in effective vertical and horizontal thermal conductivity with increasing compressive vertical applied pressure. An experiment was developed to simultaneously measure the effective vertical and horizontal thermal conductivities of particle beds with needle probes. Measurements were made as compressive vertical pressure was increased to show the relationship between increasing pressure and effective vertical and horizontal thermal conductivity. The results of this experiment showed quantitatively the conductivity anisotropy for two different materials and validated the developed model. This model can be used to predict the anisotropic effective thermal conductivity of granular materials under uniaxial compressive pressures, and evaluate the uncertainties in lunar heat flow measurements. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
