Thermal Conductivity of Some Organic Liquids. High Temperature Measurements.

Transport Properties of Some Organic Heat Transfer Fluids.

“…Fairly comprehensive thermodynamic data for Dowtherm A can be found in manufacturer's publications. Apart from individual points of unspecified origin, thermal conductivity ot this substance has been investigated experimentally by only three previous observers, whose results do not agree too well (4,12,23). Thermal conductivity values found in data compilations (7,18,20) are considerably at variance with the former experimental values.…”

Thermal conductivity and viscosity of biphenyl and the terphenyls

“…(kT\ -) = 0.8335 Tr (10) The advantage of using Equation 10in preference to the tabulated values is that the Bromley-Wilke equation can be rewritten in the form of Equation 11. These equations are also valid for the saturated vapors up to temperatures of 450°C.…”

Thermal Conductivity of Organic Silicates.

“…Simple theories of liquid thermal conductivity are often based on vibrational energy transfer between molecules in a cubic arrangement. The Kincaid and Eyring equation (11) K = 2.79 7 kUs(N/ V)2'3 (4) is adequate for simple molecules, but has been shown (2) to give low results for large, complex molecules which apparently do not vibrate as a whole, but in segments. Thus it is instructive to substitute measured thermal conductivities in Equation 4to obtain values of the segment size effective for thermal conduction.…”
