Measurements of thermal properties and blood perfusion using the heat flux microsensor

A thin-film heat flux sensor was used in two transient conduction applications. First it was used in a device for simultaneously determining the thermal conductivity, κ, and the thermal diffusivity, α, of solid materials. The device was heated and then touched to metal samples at room temperature. T...
