Özet:
Graphene is a material with superior properties such as high thermal conductivity and mechanical strength. These exceptional properties make graphene a good candidate for being used as a reinforcement agent in other materials. Aluminium is a widely used material in industry for thermal applications for being cheap, lightweight and having high thermal conductivity. In the literature, there are many examples of graphene reinforced aluminium production. Also, the effects of graphene on thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of aluminium are also investigated experimentally. However, there are limited molecular dynamics studies for graphene-aluminium composites. In this work, aluminium, graphene and graphene coated aluminium are modeled and simulated with non-equilibrium molecular dynamics method. Length, width, height, temperature dependence of thermal conductivity of these models are investigated. In addition, effects of graphene layer number, defect size and defect locations are also reported. Additionally, an experimental setup is designed and produced for a comparative study. Thermal performances of aluminium alloy and graphene nanoplatelet reinforced aluminium are investigated with a convection heat transfer test.
