Abstract

This work aims to determine the temperature-dependent thermophysical properties of anisotropic composite material utilizing the inverse parameter estimation technique. An inverse method, which can simultaneously estimate the thermal conductivity and the volumetric heat capacity, is described and implemented. An experimental system with an adequate heating method is proposed for accurate measurement. A composite slab is fabricated as the specimen using the thermoplastic prepregs (APC-2) via the compression molding process. The obtained result is compared with an existing result to prove the validity of the entire system.
