Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity are two key basic factors of thermal property data that determine gas hydrate resource extraction. In this study

carbon dioxide hydrate sample was formed from a supersaturated carbon dioxide gas solution and layer by layer formed with the equal thickness in the reactor cell lined with fluorine plastics. The thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of carbon dioxide hydrate were in-situ measured by means of transient plane source technique. The measurements were performed at 264.68-282.04 K and 1.5-3 MPa. The measurements were also performed during self-preservation effect process at 268.05 K and 0.6 MPa. The characteristics of thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of carbon dioxide hydrate were obtained on crystalline state and during self-preservation effect process. The results of this paper can provide basic data and theoretical basis for the development and utilization of natural gas hydrate resources.
