Effect of Pressure and Temperature on the Thermal Conductivity of Rocks

Abstract: Effective thermal conductivity (ETC) of five dry rocks (sandstone, limestone, amphibolite, granulite, and pyroxenegranulite) have been measured over a temperature range from (273 to 423) K and at pressures up to 350 MPa with a steady-state parallel-plate apparatus. It is an absolute, steady-state measurement device with an operational temperature range of (273 to 1273) K and hydrostatic pressures up to 1500 MPa. The estimated uncertainty of the method is 2 %. The porosity of the samples (sandstone, limestone, … Show more

“…Moreover, they indicate that j strongly decreases from 1.5 to 2.5 mm 2 s -1 at ambient conditions to 0.5 mm 2 s -1 at midcrustal temperatures. Their results as well as the results of Abdulagatov et al (2006) suggest that the average k of the crust is *2 W m -1 K -1 .…”

“…Pore space deforms at high temperatures of *400°C (Hyndman and Shearer, 1989, and references therein); hence, rocks that have experienced depths of *200 km on Mars would be expected to have no pore space (however, overburden pressure in combination with the low yield strength of rocks due to high temperature may effectively close pore space before these temperatures are reached). The closure depth of pore space for any particular rock type is poorly known; however, pore space in martian plutonic rocks would be expected to fall below 1% volume at depths greater than 40 km (less deep for basalts), which corresponds to *350 MPa (Abdulagatov et al, 2006). Appendix D provides a more detailed discussion of the dependence of pore space on depth.…”
