Abstract
The Wiedemann-Franz law, a prediction of the electronic theory of electrical and thermal conduction in metals, states that the Lorenz number L = κ/σT, where κ, σ, and T are the thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, and absolute temperature, respectively, is a universal constant in certain cases. We present here a simple experimental setup to verify this prediction in a teaching laboratory.
