Abstract: The paper presents new absolute measurements of the thermal conductivity of the five noble gases at a nominal temperature of 27.5°C and over a range of pressures. Measurements were made in a transient hot-wire apparatus whose design and operational equations have been published earlier. These values replace the earlier data generated in the same instrument, which has undergone a number of improvements introduced since. The most essential difference is an improved design of the cell, the use of bare platinum wires of 7 μm in diameter, and provision for temperature calibration of electric resistance in situ.
