The measurement of the physical properties (density, viscosity,
surface tension, thermal conductivity, etc.) is of great importance
to the research, industry and physical, chemical and biomedical
applications. The thermal conductivity is a measurement of the
material's ability to conduct heat. The Transient Hot Wire method
is a suitable method to measure the thermal conductivity due to its
very cheap cost of construction, accuracy and because it is a fast
method of measurement. The implementation requires accurate
temperature sensing, automatic control, data acquisition and data
analysis. The basic procedure consists of measuring the temporal
temperature rise in a thermoresistance (thin wire) immersed in the
solution by applying an electrical current in the wire. Therefore,
the wire works as a heat source and a temperature sensor. The time
of measurement is very short and therefore the convection effect
could be minimized. Then, the heat transfer to the infinite medium
is due only to the conduction transfer effect. The thermal
conductivity can be determined from the slope of the curve T versus
ln(t) due to the linear relation between T and ln(t)."
