Thermal conductivity of NaCl up to 40 kbar and 240-400 K

• The thermal conductivity, λ, of NaCl has been measured at pressures up to 40 kbar and temperatures between 240 K and 400 K in a solid medium in a 'belt' type of high-pressure apparatus. A steady state method with axial heating of a cylindrical specimen was employed. The increase of lambda with pressure was almost linear and the ratio of the thermal conductivity at 25 kbar to that at atmospheric pressure, λ(25)/λ(0), was found to be 1.72, and independent of temperature within the experimental error.
