Thermophysical Properties of Matter - The TPRC Data Series. Volume 3. Thermal Conductivity - Nonmetallic Liquids and Gases

Abstract

Abstract : The TPRC Data Series published in 13 volumes plus a Master Index volume constitutes a permanent and valuable contribution to science and technology. This 17,000 page Data Series should form a necessary acquisition to all scientific and technological libraries and laboratories. These volumes contain an enormous amount of data and information for thermophysical properties on more than 5,000 different materials of interest to researchers in government laboratories and the defense industrial establishment. Volume 3 in this 14 volume TPRC Data Series covers nonmetallic pure substances and mixtures which are in the fluid state at normal temperature and pressure, including 12 elements (plus two isotopes of hydrogen), 10 inorganic compounds, 33 organic compounds, 82 binary systems, 23 ternary systems, and eight systems with more than three components. For the elements, recommended thermal conductivity values are presented for solid, saturated liquid, saturated vapor, and gaseous states. For the other pure substances, recommended values are presented for saturated liquid and gaseous states for fluid mixtures, graphically smoothed values are given in addition to the original experimental data.
