Abstract
Measurements of the thermal conductivity of HFC-134a made in a coaxial cylinder cell operating in steady state are reported. The measurements of the thermal conductivity of HFC-134a were performed along several quasi-isotherms between 300 and 530 K in the gas phase and the liquid phase. The pressure ranged from 0.1 to 50 MPa. Based on the experimental data, a background equation is provided to calculate the thermal conductivity outside the critical region as a function of temperature and pressure. A careful analysis of the various sources of errors leads to an estimated uncertainty of ±1.5%.
