Here is one source:
The National Honey Board's 'Honey -- a reference guide to nature's sweetener'
http://www.bjcp.org/mead/refguide.pdf
says:
"The thermal conductivity of honey increases with temperature and total solids, ranging from 118 x 10 -5 to 143 x 10 -5 cal/cm sec °C"
R is the thickness divided by the thermal conductivity.
