Thermal conductivity k is a measure of the ability of a material to conduct heat. For conduction heat transfer in the x-direction through a surface normal to the x-direction, Fourier’s law of heat conduction is expressed as: Q=-kA.dT/dx
where ?̇ is the rate of heat transfer and A is the area normal to the direction of heat transfer. Determine the primary dimensions of thermal conductivity (k). Look up a value of k and verify that its SI units are consistent with your result. Write a set of primary SI units for k.
