Soil thermal conductivity is a critical parameter that governs the ability of the ground to transfer heat. It is influenced by a complex interplay of factors such as soil composition, moisture content ...

A NUMBER of measurements on the thermal conductivity of mica perpendicular to the cleavage planes have been carried out in the past 1,2. However, apart from the work of Jannetaz 3, which suggests that ...

Thermal conduction is the transfer of internal energy by microscopic collisions of particles and movement of electrons within a body. The colliding particles, which include molecules, atoms and ...
