Thermal conductivity is defined as the property of a material that indicates its ability to conduct heat
through its body under a steady state condition. Thermal conductivity depends on many properties of a
material, its structure and temperature. The transfer of heat within a material takes place by
conduction; in this process the materials do not move as a whole but the energy flows through the body
of the material by the transfer of the molecular kinetic energy. Thermal conductivity can be defined as
the quantity of heat that is transmitted through a unit thickness in the direction normal to the surface of
unit area per unit of time and per unit of temperature difference. Crystalline substances which are pure
in nature exhibit different thermal conductivities along different axes because of the alteration in the
phonon coupling in any given axis.
