Thermal conductivity of magnesite refractories in the range 500–1800°C

Conclusions An experimental setup was developed for studying the thermal conductivity of refractories up to 2300°C on the hot face of the specimen.In the average temperature range of 500–1800°C a study was made of the thermal conductivity of magnesite refractories of different porosity. The experimental data obtained satisfactorily agree with well-known literature and calculated values for the thermal conductivity coefficients.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 1, pp. 17–21, January, 1972.
