Thermal conductivity investigation for CNT based polymer nanocomposites with effective structural parameters

Thermal conductivity of carbon nanotube polymer composites and its influences from MWNT volume fraction that are studied withelement methods will be surveyed in this research. Nanopolymer in this research is made by epoxy that is reinforced with multiwall carbon nanotube. In next step the results of finite element method will compare with new runs based on effective medium theory and cylindrical inclusions in polymer composites. Also, the results will compare with the other model for more review[۱,۲]. Finally, behavior adaptation of volume fraction have been studied in Both analytical and finite element models, and accuracy of each method in expression the effect of volume fraction of fillers is measured to be used in future research with high reliability.
