Experimental investigations on the thermal performance of additively manufactured porous topologies

Abstract

Additive manufacturing enables researchers to form unique and unconventional topologies satisfying design compactness, improved efficiency, and lower cost. Design freedom introduced by the additive manufacturing reveals the idea of implementing the topology optimization approach into thermal systems. In this study, changes in thermal performance of three types of topologies: gyroid, hexagon (honeycomb), and rectilinear are experimentally investigated. In addition, porosity level of each topology is varied in between 25%, 50% and 75% to improve the impact of the study. The experimental results indicate that gyroid structures are thermally more efficient (up to 15.6%) than the remaining topologies. Furthermore, thermal diffusivities of the rectilinear and gyroid topologies with 25% porosity level are measured as the extremes, and it is detected that these structures propagate heat 1.1 times greater than the hexagon structure.
