There are now many nodal superconductors in heavy-fermion (HF)
systems, charge-conjugated organic metals, high-
cuprates and ruthenates. On the other hand, only few of them have
well established
. We present here a study of the
angular-dependent thermal conductivity in the vortex state of some
of the nodal superconductors. We hope it will help to identify the
nodal directions in
