Summary

The thermal conductivity (k) probe is derived from an idealized transient heat transfer model; therefore, there are inevitable differences between the real probe and the theoretical model. However, the k probe is still an accurate and practical measurement device with wide-ranging applications if designed and used properly. The paper includes a theoretical derivation of the k probe equation and some experimental and theoretical simulations of parameters that can cause errors in the application of the k probe.
