In general, there are three methods of measuring the TCC: the two-linear parallel probe method, the plane heat source method, and the hot guarded plate method (Morabito 1989; Carslaw and Jaeger 1959; Nevile 1995).
Few understood the botanical basis of their breeding programs, and all guarded their methods with paranoid jealousy.
Based on these results, a VIC of 32 × 32 × 1.88 mm3 is manufactured, and the effective thermal conductivity is measured by guarded hot plate method.
Rather than jealously guard his methods and reagents, Barres took pains to make them widely available to others just as, later on, he did with the voluminous data his lab was able to generate with them.
Paulson rarely gives interviews and is guarded about his methods - embedding hi-tech software in his emails to prevent them being forwarded.
Here, disciplines typically follow internal logics of jealously guarded, enthusiastically policed theories, methods, networks, cultures and power structures.
Guarded heat flow meter test method is used to measure the thermal conductivity of these composites using the instrument Unitherm™ Model 2022 as per ASTM-E1530.
The guarded insulation system adopted in this method can effectively reduce the radial heat exchange and the axial shunting exchange, thus improving the precise of the measurement.
Journalistic sources and methods have usually been jealously guarded.
Much like the KFC secret herbs and spices recipe, the Coles Radio playlist and the methods behind it are closely guarded.
To discourage manipulation, The Times's method for generating its best-seller list is a closely guarded secret.
