This paper gives a review and bibliography of the literature on heat conductivity of refractories, as well as a description of a proposed method for the determination of the heat transmitting abilities of refractory materials. In the development of this method, standard apparatus, standard conditions, and standard operations were held as desirable and to a practical extent were obtained. It is believed that this method may be profitably used in testing and control laboratories for securing heat transfer data for refractory materials. The heat transfer values of several refractories, as determined by this method, are given and it is pointed out that this value closely approaches the resultant of all the forces which are acting to produce heat transmission.
