Thermal Conductivity

The thermal conductivity of a material is a measure of its ability to transfer heat. Heat transfer of low thermal conductivity materials occurs at lower rate than in materials of high thermal conductivity. The extent to which a specified material conducts electricity, analyze as the ratio of the current density in the substance to the electric field which causes the flow of current. The speed at which heat passes through a particular substance, expressed as the amount of heat that flows per unit time through a unit area with a temperature gradient of one degree per unit distance. Thermal conductivity is dependent on the temperature, the density and the moisture content of the material but will not differ with the dimensions of a material.
