Cryogenic Thermal Conductivity

To develop liquified gas storage solutions or predict temperature distribution in a structure early in the design process, the thermal conductivity of the materials used must be known. As this characteristic varies greatly at different temperatures, we can use our setup to determine the thermal conductivity at temperatures between -263°C (10K) up 17°C.

To reach such low temperatures, the setup is vacuum isolated. The setup is highly adaptable and can be modified for different sample geometries up to a length of 300 mm and a diameter of 50 mm and for good or poor thermal conducting (e.g. insulation) materials.
