Modeling the Heat of Hydration of Concrete Incorporating Fly Ash

Article Preview

Abstract:

The hydration evolution of concrete with different water-binder ratios and fly ash replacement percentages are studied by experimental investigation. Based on equivalent age concept, the effect of water-binder ratio as well as fly ash dosage on the ultimate temperature rise and heat release coefficient are analyzed with the hyperbolic-type calculating model of adiabatic temperature rise adopted. It is indicated that the adiabatic temperature rise will be reduced with the increase of water-binder ratio and the incorporation of fly ash. The hydration evolution process will be accelerated with the decrease of water-binder ratio, but slowed down when the amount of fly ash is enhanced.
