Abstract :
Current paper focuses on the influence of chiral vector on thermal conductivity of carbon nanotubes. The non-equilibrium molecular dynamic technique was implemented in commercially available software. The eleven single-walled CNTs of various chirality (from zigzag to armchair) was investigated. Moreover, the influence of length on CNTs thermal conductivity was examined.
