Abstract
The thermal diffusivity of aqueous solutions of magnesium chloride was determined in the temperature range 294 to 371 K and at atmospheric pressure. Using a noninvasive optical technique—laser-induced thermal grating (LTG)—the measurements were carried out in aqueous solutions of weight fractions of 5, 10, 15, and 20% magnesium chloride. The measurement results for the aqueous solutions are presented as a function of temperature and weight fraction.
