Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This meticulously researched book centers on the thermal conductivity of poor conductors, a topic previously underexplored compared to good conductors. The deficiency motivated the author to delve into the best methods of measuring thermal conductivity, ultimately finding the most suitable approach to be the cylinder method. The investigation, carried out over a wide temperature range, looked at the thermal conductivity of materials like concrete, gypsum, and brick, for which existing data was either limited or nonexistent. Through a detailed mathematical and experimental analysis, this book advances our understanding of thermal conductivity in poorly conducting materials. Its findings have important implications for industries dealing with thermal insulation, energy efficiency, and material science.
