Abstract

Predicting the thermal conductivity coefficient of longitudinal fiber-reinforced materials is an important and significant problem due to its wide practical application in the structure of these materials. To achieve this factor, we redefine the classical homogenization formula based on a generalized self-consistent model with a free parameter. And then, we build a database of 1700 data points using the periodic homogenization finite element method, with varying contrast ratios of the inclusion phase to the matrix phase conductivity ranging from 1 to 0, and varying volume fractions of the inclusion phase from 0 to the maximum packing density. The combination of the dataset and the generalized self-consistent model allows us to determine the relationship between the free parameter and the material inputs. By combining the approximation function with the original analytical model, we obtain a simple, explicit, and easily applicable hybrid homogenization model that provides excellent predictive capabilities for computational results
