Ingenierla 4 (2): 65-74 1994 San José Costa Rica RESUMEN Se presenta un modelo matemático para la predicción de la conductividad térmica de hidrocarburos líquidos, incluyendo compuestos que tienen oxígeno en su estructura. Se utilizó como fluido de referencia la familia de las normal parafinas a presión atmosférica y se agregaron dos factores de corrección para cuantificar el efecto de la geometría molecular y la polaridad. Se empleó el principio de estados correspondientes para generalizar el modelo y aplicarlo a presiones diferentes a la atmosférica. Se confrontó el modelo contra más de 600 datos experimentales y se obtuvo un error promedio menor al 5%. SUMMARYA mathematical model to predict the thermal conductivity of organic Iiquids, including compounds that contain oxigen within their structure is presented. The family of normal paraffins at normal pressure was used as reference fluid. Two correction factors were added to cuantifY the effect ofmolecular geometry and polarity. The corresponding state principie was used to generalize the model and apply it at pressures above the atmospheric.The model was tested agaist more than 600 experimental points, it was obtained a mean error lower than 5%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
