Abstract

The speed of sound in liquid n-pentadecane and n-heptadecane was measured using a pulse technique operating at 3 MHz. The measurements were carried out at pressures up to 150 MPa in the temperature range from 293 to 383 K. The experimental results have been used to evaluate various thermophysical properties such as density and isentropic and isothermal compressibilities up to 150 MPa with the help of additional density and heat capacity data at atmospheric pressure.
