of both. Thermal conductivity, ll, is defined as the quantity of heat which will traverse a medium of unit thickness and cross-sectional area per unit time, under the influence of an applied temperature gradient. Values of ll are usually in the range of 250-400 X 10-6 cal/cm s K, but some liquids with a high degree of association, such as may occur with hydrogen bonding, have higher conductivities. The thermal conductivity of organic liquids is generally estimated by means of equations that utilize other known properties of the material and, to a lesser extent, structural considerations. Sato - Riedel and Robbins - Kingrea Method is very popular. Thermal conductivity is only weakly a function of temperature, usually decreasing as temperature increases. At ambient conditions, any temperature correction to ll would likely be less than other uncertainties in the calculation. |
