Abstract
A method to measure the thermal diffusivity α and the conductivity κ under an identical experimental setup has been developed and α and κ of Bi-2223 oxide superconductor have been measured quasi-simultaneously. The results are analyzed on the basis of the BRT and Tewordt-Wölkhausen theory. The simultaneous measurement makes it possible to estimate the specific heat C and the Debye temperature Θ D , as well as to separate the electron and phonon contributions to the diffusivity. The simultaneous measurement also provides a useful check on the reliability and the consistency of the analyses.
