We have investigated the magnetic heat transport of several cuprate materials realizing low dimensional S=1/2 quantum antiferromagnets, in the temperature range [7, 650] K. The results at low temperatures have been obtained using a four-point steady state method, whereas for high temperatures a dynamical laser flash analysis has been employed. In particular, we have studied the spin chain material SrCuO2 and the 2D AFM square lattice La2CuO4. We observe a strong suppression of the magnetic heat conductivity with increasing temperature. We analyze and discuss the behavior of the heat conductivity by considering several scattering processes, in particular defect scattering and phonon scattering. Surprisingly, the results for these compounds obtained with the dynamical laser flash method vary with sample thickness. We associate this with a fundamental problem of this measurement technique.
