RÉSUMÉ
The effect of length on thermal conductivity of a single wall carbon nanotube is overviewed, and the values are compared with different thermal conductivity calculation methods and experimental measurements. Using a one-dimensional heat conduction model, a hexagonal packing of single wall carbon nanotube bundle is modeled to approximate the effective thermal conductivity in a water medium.
