Prediction of Thermal Conductivity of a Rock Wool Board by Computer X-Ray Tomography Technique Scanning and Random Generation-Growth Model by Xiaoguang Li, Rui Zhang, Diya Zhang, Xin Fan, Meiqi Guo, Jinyi Qin

“…Although distribution of fibers in a realistic rock wool board is unclear, it can be simulated by computer X-ray tomography technique (CT) followed by rearrangement through the random generation-growth (RGG) model. An ideal CT-RGG structure model of rock wool boards (CT-random generation-growth model) was established by simplifying material properties based on the mesostructure parameters of the RGG model. …”
