what is the thermal conductivity of a perfect conductor?

Soumya asked:
"What is the thermal conductivity of a perfect conductor?"

Ans:

Please check the link below for a detailed list of thermal conductivities of different materials.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_thermal_conductivities

Every good conductor has some thermal conductivity - low or high. Just like superconductor, thermal conductivity may become infinity for a Thermal Superconductor. Thermal Superconductors may become a reality using CNT (nanotubes)
