Measurements and calculations of thermal conductivity for liquid n-octane and n-decane

Xiong Zheng et al.

Summary: In this study, thermal conductivity of two common fuels, n-octane and n-decane, was investigated using a combination of experimental and theoretical methods. A modified model considering the critical thermal conductivity enhancement was proposed, which showed better predictive ability than traditional theoretical models. The findings not only have industrial applications but also contribute to understanding the thermal conductivity critical enhancement near the liquid-gas critical point for n-alkanes.

Measurement and modeling of thermal conductivity for short chain methyl esters: Methyl butyrate and methyl caproate

Xiong Zheng et al.

Summary: Fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) are the main component of biodiesels. It is essential to investigate the thermophysical properties of FAMEs before their industrial application. Experimental and theoretical studies were conducted on the thermal conductivities of two short-chain FAMEs, leading to accurate data and the identification of a reliable model for predicting FAME thermal conductivities.
