Effective Thermal Conductivity of Open Cell Polyurethane Foam Based on the Fractal Theory

Based on the fractal theory, the geometric structure inside an open cell polyurethane foam, which is widely used as adiabatic material, is illustrated. A simplified cell fractal model is created. In the model, the method of calculating the equivalent thermal conductivity of the porous foam is descri...
