| Summary: | The data from a projects laboratory experiment are analyzed to give values of the coefficient of thermal conductivity λ. Experiments using simplified apparatus were carried out on the temperature and pressure dependence. Thermal conductivity of gas measurements are discussed for the case of large gradients in coaxial cylinder apparatus, a technique used in recent research. The various sources of error common to such measurements are assessed, including convection according to recent treatments. |
