Abstract
New absolute measurements, by the transient hot-wire technique, of the thermal conductivity of n-hexadecane and binary mixtures of n-hexadecane with ethanol and n-decane with butanol are presented. The temperature range examined was 295–345 K and the pressure atmospheric. The concentrations of the mixtures studied were 92% (by weight) of n-hexadecane and 30 and 70% (by weight) of n-decane. The overall uncertainty in the reported thermal conductivity data is estimated to be ±0.5%, an estimate confirmed by the measurement of the thermal conductivity of water. A recently extended semiempirical scheme for the prediction of the thermal conductivity of mixtures from the pure components is used to correlate and predict the thermal conductivity of these mixtures, as a function of both composition and temperature.
