List of thermal conductivities

In heat transfer, the thermal conductivity of a substance, k, is an intensive property that indicates its ability to conduct heat. For most materials, the amount of heat conducted varies (usually non-linearly) with temperature. ^[1]

Thermal conductivity is often measured with laser flash analysis. Alternative measurements are also established.

Mixtures may have variable thermal conductivities due to composition. Note that for gases in usual conditions, heat transfer by advection (caused by convection or turbulence for instance) is the dominant mechanism compared to conduction.

This table shows thermal conductivity in SI units of watts per metre-kelvin (W·m⁻¹·K⁻¹). Some measurements use the imperial unit BTUs per foot per hour per degree Fahrenheit (1 BTU h⁻¹ ft⁻¹ F⁻¹ = 1.728 W·m⁻¹·K⁻¹). ^[2]

Analytical list

Thermal conductivities have been measured with longitudinal heat flow methods where the experimental arrangement is so designed to accommodate heat flow in only the axial direction, temperatures are constant, and radial heat loss is prevented or minimized. For the sake of simplicity the conductivities that are found by that method in all of its variations are noted as L conductivities, those that are found by radial measurements of the sort are noted as R conductivities, and those that are found from periodic or transient heat flow are distinguished as P conductivities. Numerous variations of all of the above and various other methods have been discussed by some G. K. White, M. J. Laubits, D. R. Flynn, B. O. Peirce and R. W. Wilson and various other theorists who are noted in an international Data Series from Purdue University, Volume I pages 14a–38a. ^[8]

[27] Let K0 is the normal conductivity at one bar (105 N/m2) pressure, Ke is its conductivity at special pressure and/or length scale. Let d is a plate distance in meters, P is an air pressure in Pascals (N/m2), T is temperature Kelvin, C is this Lasance constant 7.6 ⋅ 10−5 m ⋅ K/N and PP is the product P ⋅ d/T. The Lasance approximation formula is Ke/K0 = 1/(1+C/PP). Some readers might find the notation confusing since the original mK might be interpreted as milliKelvins when it is really meter-Kelvins. He(Lasance?) puts a one (1) at the end of his equation so that it appears like this: Ke/K0 = 1/(1+C/PP)(1). Eventually you can find out from his graph that the (1) at the end is not part of his formula and instead he is citing his graph.

[82] [31] In this particular case the solidity of the granite is 0.966. A bar is 105 Pa or 105 Newtons/meter2 and pressures around 5000 bar should normally be found at depths of about 19 to 23 kilometers.

[96] [95] The formulas are: 1)van Duser: k=2.09(1–0.0017 T(°C)); 2)Choi & Okos: k=2.2199-6.248 ⋅ 10−3 T(°C) + 1.0154 ⋅ 10−4 T(°C)2; 3)Ratcliffe: k=2135 T(K)-1.235. k is given in w ⋅ m−1 ⋅ K−1. Errata: Contrary to what they say the formula of Bonales and Sanz cannot be fitted to their data and also it is not consistent with the results of Choi and Okos since their formula is a typo and also Choi and Okos did not cook up a linear function to start with. Instead the formula that would fit some of the Bonales data is k ≈ 2.0526 - 0.0176TC and not k = -0.0176 + 2.0526T as they say on page S615 and also the values they posted for Alexiades and Solomon do not fit the other formula that they posted on table 1 on page S611 and the formula that would fit over there is k = 2.18 - 0.01365TC and not k = 2.18 - 0.01365TK.

[118]	268.15 ± 2K 269.26		Higashi anomalies: The very high c values that are labeled as thermal conductivities in table III on page 100 would roughly fit the thesis of the paper if they came with lower orders of magnitude. The way that the dry soils get a lot lighter between Table I on page 99 and table IV on pages 102-3 is eventually explained by the fact that Table I has pycnometer densities. For those who may already see reasons to learn more about the thermal conductivities of the soils it is free from the Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory. The whole thing is on the Farouki reference footnote [118] and it comes with graphs and with formulas. To make it easier a lb/ft3 is about 0.01601846 grams/cm3 and a Btu in./ft2 hr °F is about 0.14413139 W ⋅ m−1 ⋅ K−1.

Also the copy is blurred up enough to give you the impression that maybe what it really means is 1.36 W−1 cm−1 K−1 and 78.6 Btu hr−1 ft−1 F−1 and a type-head that got overdue for its cleaning since the secretary had a tall heap of papers on her desk and if that is the case then the multilingual expression is perfectly consistent.
