Abstract

The paper describes absolute measurements of the thermal conductivity of four pure monatomic gases, He, Ne, Ar and Kr. The measurements were performed at room temperature (≈300 K) in a high-precision instrument based on the transient hot-wire principle. In the cases of He, Ne and Ar the measurements were performed in the pressure range 0.8 MPa to 35 MPa, whereas for Kr the pressure range covered was 1.1 to 16 MPa. The precision and reproducibility of the experimental data are estimated to be 0.2%, whereas their accuracy is judged to be one of ±1.5%.
