Summary

The thermal conductivity of liquid oxygen below 80 K and pressures up to 1 MPa has been measured using a horizontal, guarded, flat-plate calorimeter. The working equation of the calorimeter is based on the one-dimensional Fourier's law. The gap between the calorimeter plates was measured in situ from a capacitance measurement. The cooling power to the calorimeter is provided by a two-stage Gifford-McMahon cryocooler. The absolute temperatures are measured using platinum resistance thermometers. The results are compared to existing data and analytical models. [Reprinted with permission from Elsevier. Copyright, 2005].
