Investigation on the Temperature-Dependent Thermal Diffusivitiesof SBR/BR Blends Using an Inverse Heat Transfer Model

This research devotes to the prediction of thermal diffusivities of three SBR/BR rubber compounds. A new methodology was developed based on the indirect transfer of the measured temperature profile to thermal properties. To achieve this task,Abaqus software was used in conjunction with an optimization algorithm in Isightcode. The effects of the MWD and oil content on the thermal diffusivities of the prepared compounds were studiedand discussed
