    Data Thermal
Click For Summary
Thermal conductivity data for copper and aluminum from 4.2 K to 300 K is sought by a forum member. Recommendations include consulting Touloukian et al.'s "Thermophysical Properties of Matter" and the NIST website for material properties. It is noted that comprehensive resources like the "Cryogenic Materials Data Handbook" can provide extensive information, and data availability is generally better for specific alloys than for pure elements.

dear PF members,
If anyone have some data/url/plot regarding the thermal conductivity of copper and aluminium from 4.2 K up to 300 K, please send me..
thanks

If you don't find anything online, check Touloukian et al, Thermophysical Properties of Matter (1970) (New York: IFI/Plenum).
 
If you need data that isn't listed here:
http://cryogenics.nist.gov/MPropsMAY/material%20properties.htm

let me know. I have the "Cryogenic Materials Data Handbook" which is one of the most comprehensive books on material properties available. Note that data is easier to come by for specific common alloys as opposed to pure elements.
 
I need to anneal 5052 aluminum for a home project. Google has given me mixed results on how to do this. Short version is that I'm doing some heavy forming on a piece of 5052-H32 and I'm running into issues with it work hardening. I've tried the Sharpie trick with a propane torch. But I'm not sure this is doing anything. I'm also seeing conflicting opinions whether to quench or air cool. So I'm looking for some expert opinions. (Oven heating is not an option due to size.) Thanks. edit: The...
