Analysis of Thermal Conductivity Data for Fourteen Elements in Normal and Superconducting States.

Abstract

Using thermal conductivity data from TPRC's data bank for fourteen metallic elements in both normal and superconducting states, the superconducting transition temperature, the thermal conductivity at the transition temperature, and the purity of the samples have been estimated by graphical methods. Two basic relationships correlating the thermal conductivity at the transition temperature with the sample purity and correlating the transition temperature with the thermal conductivity at the transition temperature have been established for twelve of the fourteen elements investigated.
