Abstract: The author presents a literature review of current methods of determining thermal conductivity in order to select the best method for measuring TRISO fuel compacts. Based on the properties of the sample, the guarded-comparative-longitudinal heat flow technique was selected and a system was assembled to perform this measurement.
