Rule-based technique to measure conductivity of Yba2Cu3O7 superconductors

With the emergence of digital computing, new approaches have been attempted to solve the computationally intensive problems by selecting the suitable model and getting the inferences via controlled simulation technique close to the actual experimental observations. This provides a test-bed for pre-experimental set-up and also reduces resources. With the concept, the present work is numerically experimented on such a problem in measuring the thermal conductivity for the Yba

superconductors; which has been an interesting research area for its wide industrial applications. Measuring the conductivity of this type of material becomes complex when derived as a function of wide range of temperature considering impact of existing interactions between various scattering processes involved during the thermal conduction. The outcome of the present approach does not much deviate from the experimental results. In addition, inferences at higher temperature regions have also been obtained to uncover the impact of scattering process individual or combined.
