· New research on TC for insulants, coatings, low temperature and nanomaterials · Original data on diffusivity and thermal measurement techniques  · Thermal measurement, properties of many natural and engineered materials · Fully refereed presentations on thermal conductivityWith electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity is increasingly recognized as a critical property of engineered materials. This attractive, case bound book, published in late 2010, offers 94 full-length and original research papers and 22 abstracts investigating all phases of thermal conductivity relating to a wide range of materials. Special attention is given to novel measurement techniques, data analysis, and applications in numerous areas, including insulation, electrical material, porous media, fire-resistant elements, and nanomaterials. The refereed contributions to the book were originally presented at the ITCC 30 conference.Partial Table of Contents· Data-Poor Society in the Data-Affluent World Mission of Thermophysical Property Community · The Transient Hot-Wire Technique: Not Quite the Answer to a Maiden's Prayer · Optimized Materials and Novel Concepts for Highly Efficient Insulants · Remote Electro-Thermal Imaging for Polar Materials · Nuclear Energy Is There a Renaissance? · Challenges in Submicron Thermal Measurements and Computations · Imaging Heat   Chapter 2 Invited Lectures · Transient Hot-Wire Technique: From Gases to Liquids, to Melts and Solids, and Still Going Strong! · Pulsed Light Heating Thermoreflectance Methods for Thermophysical Property Measurements of Thin Films · International Standards for Thermophysical Properties · Thermal Conductivity of Graphene: The First Measurements and Theoretical Analysis · Fire Resistive Materials: Thermal Barriers Between Fires and Structures · Heat Transfer Modeling and Validation for Optically Thick Alumina Fibrous Insulation · The Influence of the Quality of Thermal Conductivity and Thermal Expansion Data on the Numerical Simulation in Metal Part Production · Thermophysical Properties for the Aluminum Industry · Thermophysical Analysis of Technological Processes by Pulse Transient and Hot Ball Methods · General Reflection of Acoustic Waves in Hexagonal Crystals · A Review of Expansion Measurements for Subsecond Ohmic Pulse-Heating Experiments · Influence of Oxygen Partial Pressure on the Thermophysical Properties Measurements of Liquid Metals · New Beam Size Correction for Thermal Diffusivity Measurement with the Flash Method · Standards: Who Needs Them? · Application of Precision Dimensional Measurements to Thermo-Hygro-Mechanics · Thermal Penetration Depth and Penetration Time in Transient Experiments · From the Lowly to the Lofty: Thermal Conductivity Extremes in Solids at Low Temperature · Structural Length Scales and Thermal Conductivity · Thermal Conductivity in the Zero Density Limit The Current Status · Has There Been Any Proof of the Cattaneo-Vernotte Equation?
