Thermal Conductivity of Papua New Guinea Balsa Wood Measured using the Needle Probe Procedure

A study was undertaken with the aim to determine thermal properties of balsa wood grown in plantations in Papua New Guinea. Thermal conductivity values were measured using the needle probe procedure according to ASTM D5334 (2008). The mean thermal conductivity results of balsa were in the range of 0...
