Absolute determination of the thermal conductivity of the noble gases and two of their binary mixtures as a function of density
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported absolute measurement of the thermal conductivity of the monatomic gases helium, neon, argon, krypton and xenon and of binary mixtures of helium and neon.

An apparatus to measure the thermal conductivity of liquids
TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus for the measurement of the thermal conductivity of non-conducting liquids under their saturation vapour pressure is described, which is based upon the transient hot wire principle.

Application of the Transient Hot-Wire Technique to the Measurement of the Thermal Conductivity of Solids
TL;DR: In this article, a novel application of the transient hot-wire technique for thermal conductivity measurements is described, which is intended to provide an accurate means of implementation of the method to the determination of the thermal conductivities of solids exemplified by a standard reference ceramic material.

An absolute vibrating-wire viscometer for liquids at high pressures
TL;DR: In this article, a vibrating-wire viscometer for the measurement of the viscosity of liquids at pressures up to 100 MPa is described. But the design of the instrument is based on a complete theory so that it is possible to make absolute measurements with an associated error of only a few parts in one thousand.

A computer-controlled instrument for the measurement of the thermal conductivity of liquids
TL;DR: In this paper, a new instrument for the measurement of the thermal conductivity of liquids by the transient hot-wire method is described, which employs a novel technique for the determination of the transient temperature rise of the hot wire during the course of a measurement.
