    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

    Very high thermal conductivity measurements up to 22,600 w m −1 K −1 were reported by Fenton, E.W., Rogers, J.S. and Woods, S.D. in reference 570 on page 1458, 41, 2026–33, 1963. The data is listed on pages 6 through 8 and graphed on page 1 where Fenton and company are on curves 63 and 64.

  3. Material selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_selection

    Material selection is often benefited by the use of material index or performance index relevant to the desired material properties. [2] For example, a thermal blanket must have poor thermal conductivity in order to minimize heat transfer for a given temperature difference. It is essential that a designer should have a thorough knowledge of the ...

  4. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    The thermal conductivity of the interstitial material and its pressure, examined through reference to the Knudsen number, are the two properties governing its influence on contact conductance, and thermal transport in heterogeneous materials in general. [7]

  5. Thermal conductivity and resistivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity_and...

    The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its ability to conduct heat. It is commonly denoted by , , or and is measured in W·m −1 ·K −1. Heat transfer occurs at a lower rate in materials of low thermal conductivity than in materials of high thermal conductivity.

    As quoted from various sources in an online version of: David R. Lide (ed), CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 84th Edition.CRC Press. Boca Raton, Florida, 2003; Section 12, Properties of Solids; Thermal and Physical Properties of Pure Metals / Thermal Conductivity of Crystalline Dielectrics / Thermal Conductivity of Metals and Semiconductors as a Function of Temperature

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoelectric_materials

    This was attributed to an extremely low thermal conductivity found in the SnSe lattice. Specifically, SnSe demonstrated a lattice thermal conductivity of 0.23 W·m −1 ·K −1, much lower than previously reported values of 0.5 W·m −1 ·K −1 and greater. [96] This material also exhibited a ZT of 2.3 ± 0.3 along the c-axis and 0.8 ± 0.2 ...

  8. Drude model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drude_model

    Dividing the thermal conductivity by the electrical conductivity = eliminates the scattering time and gives = At this point of the calculation, Drude made two assumptions now known to be errors. First, he used the classical result for the specific heat capacity of the conduction electrons: c v = 3 2 n k B {\displaystyle c_{v}={\tfrac {3}{2}}nk ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

    The resistance per wire length (Ω/m) of a heating element material is defined in ASTM and DIN standards. [ 2 ] : 2 [ 3 ] [ 4 ] In ASTM, wires greater than 0.127 mm in diameter are specified to be held within a tolerance of ±5% Ω/m and for thinner wires ±8% Ω/m.
