Abstract
  • From measurements of thermal and electrical conductivities of 64 ocean sediment samples obtained from piston cores taken off the Oregon Coast, and from 37 water-saturated sandstone samples analyzed by Zierfuss and Van der Vliet (1956), as well as 51 thermal conductivities and water contents of ocean sediments analyzed by Ratcliffe (1960), this research shows that a useful relationship can be obtained giving thermal conductivity when electrical conductivity is known. Analysis of the data was made using theoretical concepts which have been known for many years to relate thermal and electrical conductivity to porosity. The results of this research may make possible a convenient determination of in situ thermal conductivity that would give the average conductivity in materials containing large variations in conductivity.
