Thermal conductivity of pure fluids in the critical region

Abstract

A generalized approach has been made to find the parameters strongly influencing the anomalous thermal conductivity behavior in the critical point region. For an analysis of the mathematical character of the critical anomaly, the two commonly used thermodynamic variables, temperature and density, and the two characteristic parameters, critical compressibility factor, Zc, and De Boer quantum parameter, Λ*, have been adopted. © 1984 Korean Institute of Chemical Engineering.
