| Abstract | The study investigated the impact of carbon nanotubes (CNTs), carbon fibers (CFs), steel fibers, and varying water-to-binder (W/B) ratios on the thermoelectric and mechanical properties of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC). Flowability tests revealed reduced flow with decreased water content and the addition of CNTs or CFs, particularly pronounced at a lower W/B ratio. Thermal gravimetric analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy demonstrated differences in peak intensities and shifts in peaks related to the hydration products of the UHPC by the incorporation of the CNTs and CFs. The compressive strength and tensile performance increased with reduced W/B ratios and the inclusion of steel fibers, whereas the CNTs and CFs affected the strength differently based on their dispersion and interaction with other components that influenced porosity. The presence of steel fibers reduces the percolation threshold for CNTs and CFs, indicating a synergistic effect that enhances electron transport connectivity. The thermal conductivity increased with the addition of CNTs, CFs, and steel fibers, enhancing heat transfer within the UHPC. The thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) values highlighted the combined impact of CNTs, CFs, steel fibers, and W/B ratios on the thermoelectric efficiency of the UHPC, showing significant improvements with the inclusion of steel fibers and the interplay between the CNTs and W/B ratios. Ultimately, upon introducing 1.5 % steel fibers and 0.3 % CNTs, a substantial enhancement in the thermoelectric ZT was observed, surpassing the standard UHPC values by 12 orders of magnitude. |
