Abstract

Radiation diffusion was investigated as a heat transfer mechanism in highly absorbing microscale graphite. A 50\mum thick graphite sheet was heated by a 1064 nm Nd:YAG continuous wave (CW) laser with optical intensities of 10 kW/cm2 and 20 kW/cm2. Extremely high temperatures (i.e., \geq2000 K) were achieved on the graphite sheet within miliseconds, which were measured by a two-color pyrometer. The recorded temperatures were later compared with numerical solutions of differential heat conduction equation. A close match was found between numerical and experimental results only when radiation diffusion was incorporated in the thermal conductivity along with the lattice vibration.
