Density, Pressure, and Temperature Effects on Heat Transfer in Apollo 11 Fines

The thermal conductivity of the Apollo 11 lunar fines is presented as a function of temperature for three values of bulk density corresponding to lightly disturbed, normal surface condition, and packed. The thermal conductivity is also presented as a function of ambient pressure at conditions of normal density and standard temperature. The thermal diffusivity is calculated over the same range of parameters. Average values of the conductivity, diffusivity, and thermal parameter are also presented.
