Hello again, here I encounter 1 problem, Apparently when I wanted to have the thermal conductivity of water above 373 K, the data retrieved change into water vapour thermal conductivity. Is there anyway to get the data in liquid form?

Well, you can use the Export command.

Export["~/Desktop/conductivitydata.csv", data]

would be one option (you obviously might need to adapt the directory).

Cheers,

Is there any way for me to store the data into my PC? As I need to iterate the information according to the temperature of the material.

So, the data is extracted from WolframAlpha, which is connected to the server and it does not stored in my PC?

This is not elegant and a bit slow, but

data=Table[WolframAlpha["Thermal Conductivity of Aluminium at " <> ToString[h] <>  "K", {{"Result", 1}, "ComputableData"}], {h, 100, 1000, 100}]

appears to be giving results. Here is a plot

ListPlot[Transpose[{Range[100, 1000, 100], QuantityMagnitude@ data}]] 

This looks a bit strange to me, but there we go:

I cannot verify the values, but some do not seem to be in total disagreement with, data, e.g. here.
