Tabulation Data and Calculation Exp1

The document contains calculations of thermal conductivity (k) for copper, stainless steel, and aluminum. It provides measurements like length, diameter, area, temperatures, and power to calculate k. For copper, k was calculated as 171.9 W/m°C with a 57.1% error compared to the theoretical 401 W/m°C. For stainless steel, k was 95.5 W/m°C. For aluminum, k was 122.7 W/m°C with a 48% error compared to the theoretical 237 W/m°C.
