Path: Thermal/HeatExchanger
% Computes the thermal conductivity
Thermal conductivity of gases. Extrapolates beyond the range of data. The data
may not be valid for any t since the substance may not be a gas or a
molecule may dissociate at the input temperature.
Type ThermalConductivity for a demo for Xenon.
