In this test method the thermal conductivity is determined by inserting a relatively long needle of small diameter into the material. The needle consists of both heating and temperature measuring ele- ments, To perform the test a known amount of current is passed through the heater element and the resulting variation Of temperature is monitored as a function of time. 5, Significance and Use 3.1 The test method presented here is used to determine the thermal conductivity (2) of both undisturbed and remolded soil samples as well as in situ and laboratory soft rack samples, This parameter is used in the thermal analysis, of underground electrical transmission lines. oil pipelines. radioactive waste disposal. and solar thermal storage facili ties. 6. Apparatus 6.1 The apparatus shall consist of the following: 6.1.1 Thermal Needle Probe—A device that creates a linear heat source and incorporates a temperature measuring element (thermocouple or thermister) to measure the varia- tion of temperarure at a point along the line.

Any variation observed on the data is just as likely to be due to specimen vanation as to operator ior laboratory testing variation. Data obtained from tests on ‘materials with known thermal conductivity indicate that precision of 5 to 10°% can be achieved. Subcommittee 18.12 welcomes proposals that would allow for develop- ment of a valid pfecision statement. There is no accepted reference value of soil or rock for this test method, therefore, bias cannot be determined. 13.

Care should be taken, to ensure that the thermal probe shaft is fully enbedded in the sample and not left partially exposed. (See Note 1.)
