The authors show that the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of colloidal particle dispersions can be rapidly obtained with high accuracy and reproducibility by exploiting a noninvasive, all-optical thermal lensing method. Applications of this technique to model suspensions of spherical monodisperse particles suggest that classical models for the effective properties of composite media hold up to rather high volume fractions, while no “anomalous” thermal conductivity effects are found

Abstract
The authors show that the thermal conductivity and diffusivity of colloidal particle dispersions can be rapidly obtained with high accuracy and reproducibility by exploiting a noninvasive, all-optical thermal lensing method. Applications of this technique to model suspensions of spherical monodisperse particles suggest that classical models for the effective properties of composite media hold up to rather high volume fractions, while no “anomalous” thermal conductivity effects are foundFile in questo prodotto:
