On the effective thermal conductivity of a three-dimensionally structured fluid-saturated metal foam

A geometrical effective thermal conductivity model of a saturated porous metal foam was developed, based on the idealized three-dimensional basic cell geometry of a foam, the tetrakaidecahedron. This geometric shape results from filling a given space with cells of equal size yielding minimal surface...
