Thermal Conductivity 5
Thermal Conductivity 5 : The quantity of heat transmitted through unit cross-sectional area of a material in unit time, per unit temperature gradient along the direction of flow. (BS 4422(1)) Thermal conductivity k = Qd/At where Q is the amount of heat that flows in time t, through temperature difference, across thickness d, of cross-section A of the material. Units are W/m deg C
