Abstract

The analysis of errors, confirmed experimentally, shows that, for measurements under optimum conditions, the absolute value of temperature conductivity can be easily obtained by the radial temperature wave method with an accuracy of ∼3% over a very wide temperature range. These optimum conditions consist in providing that Pdr≃9 and that the ratio of the diameter to the length of the sample ∼1∶3. The experiment is not complicated and can be made completely automatic. This method can be recommended for badly conducting materials which can be easily machined (for instance, plastics).
