Özet
The goal of this study was to determine the effect of densification and heat treatment on thermal conductivity properties of fir (Abies bornmulleriana Mattf.) wood. Fir wood specimens were densified with compression ratios of 25% and 50%, and at 100 °C or 140 °C. Then, the heat treatment was applied to the fir specimens at 185 °C and 212 °C for 2 hours according to ThermoWood® method. The study results showed that, densification and thermal treatment applications was effected thermal conductivity of the fir specimens. The thermal conductivity increased based on compression ratios and temperatures in the densified specimens. The thermal conductivity in the compressed specimens at high ratio (50%) was found higher than other specimens. After densification, additionally, thermal conductivity increasing on the radial surface was higher compared to the tangential surface. After heat treatment, thermal conductivity of the all specimens decreased significantly depending on the increase in treatment temperature. Particularly, the heat-treated fir specimens at 212 OC may considerated where thermal insulation is important.
