Famous Scientists and Thermal Conductivity

Famous scientists discoveries are associated with the beginning of thermodynamics, such as the key to solving most problems that involve the diffusion of any property due to a gradient, including heat transfer. One of the least recognized works done including to the theory of heat conduction through solids.

Top 10 Thermally Conductive Materials

Top 10 Thermally Conductive Materials Thermal conductivity is a measure of a material’s ability to pass heat through it. Materials with a high thermal conductivity can effectively transfer heat and readily take up heat from their environment. Poor thermal conductors resist heat flow and obtain heat slowly from their surroundings. The...

Top 10 Low Thermal Conductivity Research Papers

Top 10 Low Thermal Conductivity Research Papers Noble-gas-infused neoprene closed-cell foams achieving ultra-low thermal conductivity fabrics Closed cell foams are widely used as protective garments in extreme environments. This article studied the use of neoprene-based materials in wetsuits by developing a strategy for reducing the thermal...

What is Thermal Conductivity?

Thermal Conductivity Thermal conductivity refers to a material’s intrinsic ability to transfer or conduct heat. The thermal conductivity of a material has many implications. It is fundamental in the design, engineering, and application of materials in environments where heat transfer is a critical factor, such as: Energy Efficiency and...

Paul G. Klemens

Paul G. Klemens 12th International Thermal Conductivity Conference Award Winner 1972 Dr. Paul G. Klemens completed his MS degree in 1948, and was awarded a scholarship to Oxford University, where he spent three years completing his graduate studies in theoretical physics and collaborating with colleagues on research in thermal conductivity and...
