Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Available experimental data on the thermal conductivity, specific heat, and thermal diffusivity of quartz glass over the temperature range 60–1100°K are generalized. Empirical equations describing the temperature dependence of these thermophysical parameters are presented.
