Title: Prediction of the thermal conductivity of saturated liquids
Abstract: Using the dimensionless coordinates where λc = thermal conductivity at the critical point, λNB = thermal conductivity at the normal boiling temperature, TNB(K), and λ = thermal conductivity at any given temperature, T(K) and where Tc = the critical point temperature (K); an empirical equation, has been established to calculate the thermal conductivity of saturated liquids over the entire saturated liquid—vapour equilibrium range from the triple point to the critical point for separate compounds as well as the C1–C10 alkanes, inert and halogen compound families. The relation proposed in this work compares excellently in overall accuracy with other known selected prediction correlations over the entire range of investigation (25 compounds with 548 saturated liquid-state data points).
