Abstract
The thermal conductivity of two soils was investigated through laboratory studies. These laboratory experiments used the single probe and dual probe methods to measure and compare thermal conductivities. The soils used were classified as sand and loam. Thermal conductivity measured using single probe method ranged from 0.95 to 2.11 for sand and from 0.49 to 0.76 W/m K for loam. Thermal conductivity measured using dual probe method ranged from 0.98 to 2.17 for sand and from 0.51 to 0.78 W/m K for loam. Finally, it was found that sand had higher values of thermal conductivity than loam for all soil conditions studied.
