    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

    Let K0 is the normal conductivity at one bar (10 5 N/m 2) 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/m 2), T is temperature Kelvin, C is this Lasance constant 7.6 ⋅ 10 −5 m ⋅ K/N and PP is the product P ⋅ d/T.

  3. Thermal conductivity and resistivity - Wikipedia

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

    Thermal conductivity and resistivity. 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.

  4. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    Thermal conductivity is the property of a material to conduct heat and is evaluated primarily in terms of Fourier's Law for heat conduction. Convection The transfer of energy between an object and its environment, due to fluid motion. The average temperature is a reference for evaluating properties related to convective heat transfer. Radiation

  5. Thermal conductance and resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductance_and...

    In heat transfer, thermal engineering, and thermodynamics, thermal conductance and thermal resistance are fundamental concepts that describe the ability of materials or systems to conduct heat and the opposition they offer to the heat current. The ability to manipulate these properties allows engineers to control temperature gradient, prevent ...

  6. Boron nitride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_nitride

    The excellent thermal stability, high impermeability to gas and liquid, and electrical insulation make atomically thin boron nitride potential coating materials for preventing surface oxidation and corrosion of metals [71] [72] and other two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as black phosphorus.

  7. Thermal contact conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_contact_conductance

    In physics, thermal contact conductance is the study of heat conduction between solid or liquid bodies in thermal contact. The thermal contact conductance coefficient , h c {\displaystyle h_{c}} , is a property indicating the thermal conductivity , or ability to conduct heat , between two bodies in contact.

  8. Material properties of diamond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_properties_of_diamond

    Thermal conductivity of natural diamond was measured to be about 2,200 W/(m·K), which is five times more than silver, the most thermally conductive metal. Monocrystalline synthetic diamond enriched to 99.9% the isotope 12 C had the highest thermal conductivity of any known solid at room temperature: 3,320 W/(m·K), though reports exist of ...

  9. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    In engineering, the unit is usually Stoke or centiStoke, with 1 Stoke = 0.0001 m^2/s, and 1 centiStoke = 0.01 Stoke. For liquid, the dynamic viscosity is usually in the range of 0.001 to 1 Pascal-second, or 1 to 1000 centiPoise. The density is usually on the order of 1000 kg/m^3, i.e. that of water.
