Thermal conductivity for pure metals
Input(s)
L: Lorenz Number \(\left(\mathrm{V}^{2} / \mathrm{K}^{2}\right)\)
\(\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{e}}\): Electrical Conductivity \((\mathrm{S} / \mathrm{m})\)
\(\mathrm{T}\): Temperature \((\mathrm{K})\)
Output(s)
k: Thermal Conductivity (W/m K)
Formula(s)
\[
\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{L} * \mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{e}} * \mathrm{~T}
\]
