The laws of heat flow and methods of measuring thermal conductivity are considered. The effects of crystalline nature, impurities, lattice imperfections, grain boundaries, porosity, mixtures, and temperature on thermal conductivity are discussed. There are insufficient reliable data to assess quantitatively the effect of most of these factors at present, particularly for elevated temperatures.
