Effect of Woven Fiber Structure on Electrical Resistivity of Carbon Fiber Dry Cloth for Electromagnetic Induction Heating

抄録

Electromagnetic induction heating has been extensively studied. For fusion bonding of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics and carbon-fiber-reinforced thermal plastics, heat transfer analysis is considered necessary to ensure heating uniformity. In this study, the electrical resistivity characteristics of carbon fiber cloth are experimentally investigated, and the electrical resistivity of carbon fiber cloth is modeled. The experimental results show that the electrical resistivity tends to decrease with increasing thread density. A model is developed to quantitatively examine the electrical resistivity of carbon fiber cloth.
