A thermal conductivity apparatus is used to measure the thermal conductivity of materials. Thermal conductivity is a property that describes how well a material conducts heat. The apparatus typically consists of a sample holder, a heat source, and temperature sensors. By measuring the temperature difference and the other parameters accurately, the thermal conductivity of the material can be determined. This information is valuable in various fields, including engineering, materials science, and thermal physics, as it helps in designing and optimizing the performance of materials in different applications.
