Abstract:Numerical simulation of thermal conductivity across a multilayer array of single-walled carbon nanotubes is carried out. The effect of transverse compression of the array on thermal conductivity has been studied. It is shown that the compression of the array can occur uniformly when all the nanotubes of the array are compressed equally, and it can occur inhomogeneously when a part of the nanotubes is strongly compressed, and the other part is weakly compressed. With homogeneous compression, the thermal conduct… Show more
