This work reports on an analysis of thermophysical properties (thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and specific heat capacity) measurements of solids using dynamic methods. The influence of temperature measurement uncertainty on the parameter estimation uncertainty is studied using a least-squares procedure. The standard and difference analyses are used for optimizing the experiment with respect to the data window or time interval of measurements. The analysis is applied to the extended dynamic plane source method, and the results of numerical computations are illustrated in the form of contour plots.
