Abstract

The finite element software FLUENT was used to analyse the thermal property of the polymer composites reinforced by pulse bending nanopaper. The minimum temperatures increased during heating process under the same heating power. And the minimum temperatures increased when the heating power increased for the same heating time. The maximum, minimum and average temperatures of the pulse bending nanopaper enabled polymer composites is studied during the heating process when the thickness of nanopaper is 0.8mm. The heat source per unit volume of pulse bending nanopaper decreased when the thickness of pulse bending nanopaper increased from 0.4 mm to 1.2 mm.
