Abstract
A simple and inexpensive electrical circuit based on the transient probe method has been developed for the determination of thermal conductivities of building and insulating materials namely limebrick, gypsum, rockwool and polystrene foam. The solution of the unsteady state heat conduction equation has been approximated by considering certain simplifying assumptions which have been justified by experimental observations. The overall accuracy of the thermal conductivity measurements is estimated to be within ± 3%.
