Thermal conductivity of vanadium

New data are presented on the thermal conductivity coefficient of monocrystalline and weakly alloyed polycrystalline vanadium in the temperature range $1200$–$1900$ K. The results were obtained using two experimental arrangements. One of them applied the longitudinal thermal flux method with electron heating of the specimen and the other was radiation heating method. The results obtained are analyzed in terms of the electronic structure of the material investigated.
