Thermal Conductivity

Thermal conductivity of liquids and solids by the hot-wire technique

In addition to my main topic of research, Nonequilibrium fluctuations,  I also collaborate with Prof. Mohamed Khayet in the measurement of thermal conductivity of liquids and solids by the hot-wire technique. Here you can find some of my contributions on this topic.
