What Is a material that allows heat to flow through it easily?

Thermal conductors let heat move through them. Metals are part of this group.


Does the value of thermal conductivity depend on the dimension of the specimen?

Thermal conductivity is an intensive property. It is inherent in the material but not dependent on the amount of material. This should not be confused with the rate of heat conduction which can depend on the dimensions of a material. There is one case where the thermal conductivity might depend on the dimension of the material - when the conductivity is not uniform with direction, i.e. where conductivity laterally is different from conductivity longitudinally. When the orientation of the material changes the conductivity, the dimensions can have an effect on the apparent bulk thermal conductivity.


Is newspaper a thermal conductor?

Yes, it is a material with a high thermal conductivity.


What do you call a material that conducts heat well?

A material with a good thermal conductivity or a thermal conductor.


What material warms the fastest in thermal conductivity?

Graphene


What does thermal conductors mean?

A thermal conductor allows heat to readily flow through itself. An example of a material with a low thermal conductivity would be air, and an example of a material with a high thermal conductivity would be steel.


Define thermal conductivity?

ability of the material to resist the temperature


A what is a material through which energy can be easily transferred as heat?

Any material which has high thermal conductivity can easily transfer energy as heat. As far as I know, all metals have high thermal conductivity. Copper, gold and silver especially have high thermal conductivity. Diamond and graphene have VERY high thermal conductivity, so this is not restricted to only metals.


What is a material ability to allow heat to flow?

The property is called the material's "thermal conductivity".


What is conductivity material?

What is thermal conductivity of cast iron?

Thermal conductivity refers to the measure of the ability of a material to allow the flow of heat from its warmer surface to its colder surface. The thermal conductivity of cast iron is 80 Wm-1K-1.
