Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Design and Performance Comparison of Polymer-Derived Ceramic Ambigels and Aerogels(American Chemical Society, 2023) Soraru, Gian Domenico; İçin, Öykü; Semerci, Tuğçe; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfThis work reports the synthesis and characterization of preceramic-and polymer-derived SiOC aerogels obtained from a commercial siloxane resin. The preceramic aerogels were obtained by ambient pressure drying (ambigels) and CO2 supercritical drying. Despite different drying processes, the final ceramic ambi/aerogels have very similar microstructural features in density, porosity, pore size, and specific surface area. Both materials have shown promising results for oil sorption and water cleaning. Supercritically dried-SiOC aerogel had low thermal conductivity with 0.046 W.m(-1).K-1 at RT and 0.073 W.m(-1).K-1 at 500 degrees C. These results suggest that substituting the rather complicated and expensive CO2-SC drying with the more friendly and cheap ambient pressure drying can be done without having to accept significant microstructural/property degradation.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6The Expansion Behavior of Slurries Containing Recycled Glass Powder Carboxymethyl Cellulose, Lime and Aluminum Powder(Elsevier, 2020) Zeren, Doğuş; Şentürk, Ufuk; Güden, MustafaThe rheology and foaming/expansion of the slurries of a waste/recycled glass powder with 50, 55 and 60 wt% of solid (glass powder) were experimentally investigated. The glass powder slurries were foamed using aluminum powder as foaming agent (0.75 wt%) and calcium hydroxide as activator (1 wt%). Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was added to the slurries as a binder with the amounts between 0 and 4 wt%. The expansions of the slurries were measured in-situ using a laser sensor and reported as percent volume expansion. The CMC-addition increased the viscosities of the slurries, particularly the fine size powder slurries. The slurries with the relatively low-viscosity exhibited lower initial expansion rates compared to the slurries with the relatively high-viscosity. The maximum expansions of the slurries increased from 300 to 350%, when the viscosity increased to 5 Pa s and reached a steady value around 400% between 5 and 50 Pa s. The expansions of the slurries could not be achieved above 50 Pa s since they became too thick to be foamed. The foam samples made from the slurries with 55 and 60 wt% of solid and sintered at 700 and 750 degrees C for 30 min had the average densities between 355 and 530 kg m(-3) and the average compressive strengths between 0.2 and 0.5 MPa. Increasing sintering time to 60 min at 750 degrees C increased the average compressive strength from 0.5 to 1.5 MPa for the foam samples made from the slurry with 60 wt% of solid. These proved that both sintering temperature and time were effective in increasing the compressive strengths of the foamed structures. The thermal conductivities of the sintered foam samples with the densities of 355 and 504 kg m(-3) were measured 0.042 and 0.057 W m(-1) K-1, respectively. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

Our findings show that the thermal conductivity of graphene coated copper is higher than the uncoated ones. Furthermore, results also indicate that single layer graphene (SLG) model has the highest thermal conductivity as compared to the other model. Even though multiple layer graphene (MLG) has lower thermal conductivity value compare to SLG, this study shows that the thermal conductivity of MLG coated copper has higher thermal conductivity than SLG coated one. The most important finding in this study suggests that the thermal conductivity of copper can be improved using high thermal conductivity materials like graphene. © 2019, Avestia Publishing.Article Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 39Processing and Thermal Characterization of Polymer Derived Sicn(o) and Sioc Reticulated Foams(Elsevier, 2020) Santhosh, Balanand; Ionescu, Emanuel; Reitz, Emanuel; Albert, Barbara; Sorarù, Gian Domenico; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfHighly porous polymer-derived SiCN(O) and SiOC ceramics with low thermal conductivity were developed by replicating polyurethane (PU) foams. The PU templates were impregnated with polysilazane or polysiloxane precursor, followed by pyrolysis at different temperatures (1200 °C - 1500 °C) yielding SiCN(O) or SiOC ceramic foams, respectively. The swelling and cross-linking behavior of the used precursors had a significant impact on the morphology of the prepared foams. The samples had bulk densities ranging from 0.03 g.cm-3 to 0.56 g.cm-3 and a total porosity in the range from 75 to 98 vol%. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) were employed to follow the structural evolution together with morphological characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The obtained ceramics were thermally stable up to 1400 °C, and the linear thermal expansion coefficient values of the porous SiCN(O) and SiOC components in the temperature range from 30 to 850 °C were found to be ~1.72 x 10-6.K-1 and ~1.93 x 10-6.K-1, respectively. Thermal conductivity (?) as low as 0.03 W.m-1 K-1 was measured for the SiCN(O) and SiOC foams at room temperature (RT). The ? of the ceramic struts were also assessed by using the Gibson-Ashby model and estimated to be 2.1 W.m-1 K-1 for SiCN(O), and 1.8 W.m-1 K-1 for SiOC. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Tuning Thermal Transport in Graphene Via Combinations of Molecular Antiresonances(Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Sevim, Koray; Sevinçli, HaldunWe propose a method to engineer the phonon thermal transport properties of low dimensional systems. The method relies on introducing a predetermined combination of molecular adsorbates, which give rise to antiresonances at frequencies specific to the molecular species. Despite their dissimilar transmission spectra, thermal resistances due to individual molecules remain almost the same for all species. On the other hand, thermal resistance due to combinations of different species are not additive and show large differences depending on the species. Using a toy model, the physics underlying the violation of resistance summation rule is investigated. It is demonstrated that equivalent resistance of two scatterers having the same resistances can be close to the sum of the constituents or ∼ 70% of it depending on the relative positions of the antiresonances. The relative positions of the antiresonances determine the net change in transmission, therefore the equivalent resistance. Since the entire spectrum is involved in phonon spectrum changes in different parts of the spectrum become important. Performing extensive first-principles based computations, we show that these distinctive attributes of phonon transport can be useful to tailor the thermal transport through low dimensional materials, especially for thermoelectric and thermal management applications.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13A General Expression for the Stagnant Thermal Conductivity of Stochastic and Periodic Structures(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2018) Bai, X.; Çelik, Hasan; Mobedi, Moghtada; Nakayama, AkiraA general expression has been obtained to estimate thermal conductivities of both stochastic and periodic structures with high-solid thermal conductivity. An air layer partially occupied by slanted circular rods of high-thermal conductivity was considered to derive the general expression. The thermal conductivity based on this general expression was compared against that obtained from detailed three-dimensional numerical calculations. A good agreement between two sets of results substantiates the validity of the general expression for evaluating the stagnant thermal conductivity of the periodic structures. Subsequently, this expression was averaged over a hemispherical solid angle to estimate the stagnant thermal conductivity for stochastic structures such as a metal foam. The resulting expression was found identical to the one obtained by Hsu et al., Krishnan et al., and Yang and Nakayama. Thus, the general expression can be used for both stochastic and periodic structures.Article Citation - WoS: 50Citation - Scopus: 49Validation of Inter-Atomic Potential for Ws2 and Wse2 Crystals Through Assessment of Thermal Transport Properties(Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Mobaraki, Arash; Kandemir, Ali; Yapıcıoğlu, Haluk; Gülseren, Oğuz; Sevik, CemIn recent years, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) displaying astonishing properties are emerged as a new class of two-dimensional layered materials. The understanding and characterization of thermal transport in these materials are crucial for efficient engineering of 2D TMD materials for applications such as thermoelectric devices or overcoming general overheating issues. In this work, we obtain accurate Stillinger-Weber type empirical potential parameter sets for single-layer WS2 and WSe2 crystals by utilizing particle swarm optimization, a stochastic search algorithm. For both systems, our results are quite consistent with first-principles calculations in terms of bond distances, lattice parameters, elastic constants and vibrational properties. Using the generated potentials, we investigate the effect of temperature on phonon energies and phonon linewidth by employing spectral energy density analysis. We compare the calculated frequency shift with respect to temperature with corresponding experimental data, clearly demonstrating the accuracy of the generated inter-atomic potentials in this study. Also, we evaluate the lattice thermal conductivities of these materials by means of classical molecular dynamics simulations. The predicted thermal properties are in very good agreement with the ones calculated from first-principles.Article Citation - WoS: 130Citation - Scopus: 135Thermal Transport Properties of Mos2 and Mose2 Monolayers(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2016) Kandemir, Ali; Yapıcıoğlu, Haluk; Kınacı, Alper; Çalın, Tahir; Sevik, CemThe isolation of single- to few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides opens new directions in the application of two-dimensional materials to nanoelectronics. The characterization of thermal transport in these new low-dimensional materials is needed for their efficient implementation, either for general overheating issues or specific applications in thermoelectric devices. In this study, the lattice thermal conductivities of single-layer MoS2 and MoSe2 are evaluated using classical molecular dynamics methods. The interactions between atoms are defined by Stillinger-Weber-type empirical potentials that are developed to represent the structural, mechanical, and vibrational properties of the given materials. In the parameterization of the potentials, a stochastic optimization algorithm, namely particle swarm optimization, is utilized. The final parameter sets produce quite consistent results with density functional theory in terms of lattice parameters, bond distances, elastic constants, and vibrational properties of both single-layer MoS2 and MoSe2. The predicted thermal properties of both materials are in very good agreement with earlier first-principles calculations. The discrepancies between the calculations and experimental measurements are most probably caused by the pristine nature of the structures in our simulations.Article Citation - WoS: 52Citation - Scopus: 60Promising Thermoelectric Properties of Phosphorenes(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2016) Sevik, Cem; Sevinçli, HaldunElectronic, phononic, and thermoelectric transport properties of single layer black- and blue-phosphorene structures are investigated with first-principles based ballistic electron and phonon transport calculations employing hybrid functionals. The maximum values of room temperature thermoelectric figure of merit, ZT corresponding to armchair and zigzag directions of black-phosphorene, ∼0.5 and ∼0.25, are calculated as rather smaller than those obtained with first-principles based semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory calculations. On the other hand, the maximum value of room temperature ZT of blue-phosphorene is predicted to be substantially high and remarkable values as high as 2.5 are obtained for elevated temperatures. Besides the fact that these figures are obtained at the ballistic limit, our findings mark the strong possibility of high thermoelectric performance of blue-phosphorene in new generation thermoelectric applications.Article Citation - WoS: 126Citation - Scopus: 138Thermal Performance Optimization of Hollow Clay Bricks Made Up of Paper Waste(Elsevier Ltd., 2014) Sütçü, Mücahit; Del Coz Diaz, Juan Jose; Alvarez Rabanal, Felipe Pedro; Gençel, Osman; Akkurt, SedatIn this paper, the thermal behavior of hollow clay bricks made up of paper waste has been studied and their thermal performance has been optimized. On the one hand, both strength and thermal properties of different paper waste concentrations have been obtained by means of laboratory tests. Thermal conductivity of the microporous brick materials with additives produced in this study reduced from 0.68 W/m K to 0.39 W/m K compared with that of the sample without additives. On the other hand, the finite element method (FEM) has been applied to the nonlinear numerical thermal analysis of three different hollow bricks, including radiation and convection phenomena inside holes. Next, using the design of experiments (DOE) over the FEM models, several parameters such as the material conductivity, the convection and radiation properties and the mean brick temperature have been studied. In general, the thermal resistance is a nonlinear function that depends on the geometry of the recesses, the material properties and the temperature distribution. In all analyzed cases, minimizing the material thermal conductivity of bricks and decreasing the recesses surface radiation emissivity caused a lower thermal transmittance in the brick. Finally, the most important conclusions and the main findings of this research are exposed.
