    W /(mK) (Watt per meter per Kelvin)
    k- Thermal Conductivity
    Thermal conductivity is the time rate of steady state heat flow through a unit area of a homogeneous material induced by a unit temperature gradient in a direction perpendicular to that unit area, W/mK.

    k = q
    L
    T

    Where,
    L - Thickness of the specimen (m)
    T - Temperature (K)
    q - Heat flow rate (W/m²)
    Thermal conductance is the time rate of steady state heat flow through a unit area of a material or construction induced by a unit temperature difference between the body surfaces, in W/m² .K.
