1、Designation:C20293(Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forThermal Conductivity of Refractory Brick1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C202;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A
2、number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method supplements Test Method C201 andshall be used in conjunction with that test method to determinethe thermal conductivity of
3、 refractory brick with the exceptionof insulating firebrick(use Test Method C182),and carbonrefractories.This test method is designed for refractorieshaving a conductivity factor of not more than 200 Btuin./hft2F(28.8 W/mK).1.2 UnitsThe values stated in inch-pound units are to beregarded as standard
4、.The values given in parentheses aremathematical conversions to SI units that are provided forinformation only and are not considered standard.1.2.1 ExceptionCertain flow and weight measurementsare expressed in SI units only.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if
5、any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2C155 Classification of Insulating FirebrickC182 Tes
