Phonon transport analysis in nano-and micro-porous materials is critical to their energy-related applications. Assuming diffusive phonon scattering by pore edges, the lattice thermal conductivity can be predicted by modifying the bulk phonon mean free paths with the characteristic length of the nanoporous structure, i.e., the phonon mean free path ( ) for the pore-edge scattering of phonons. In previous studies (Jean et al., 2014), aMonte Carlo (MC) technique have been employed to extract geometry-determined for nanoporous bulk materials with selected periods and porosities. In other studies (Minnich and Chen, 2007;Machrafi and Lebon, 2015), simple expressions have been proposed to compute . However, some divergence can often be found between lattice thermal conductivities predicted by phonon MC simulations and by analytical models using . In this work, the effective values are extracted by matching the frequency-dependent phonon MC simulations with the analytical model for nanoporous
