Abstract
An experimental set-up based on the photothermal method is described for the simultaneous measurement of thermal effusivity and thermal diffusivity of materials. It is used to determine the radial thermal diffusivity of anisotropic materials or the thermal diffusivity of thin films, by the converging thermal wave technique.
