Abstract

Experimental Values of the thermal conductivity of five pure polyglycol alkyl ethers are presented in a temperature range from (303.15 to 393.15) K at a pressure of 1 MPa. Measurements were made with a Setaram C-80 II calorimetric device equipped with a suitable vessel Setup and ail auxiliary thermostat to measure at high-temperature conditions using the steady-state coaxial cylinders method. The measured values of the thermal conductivity were compared with data reported in the literature. The reliability and accuracy of the experimental method were confirmed with the measurements on pure benzene with well-known thermal conductivity values. Our data agreed with the limited data available in the literature and were correlated using an empirical expression. The Uncertainty of the results was estimated to be within 2.0 %, and the reproducibility of the data was better than +/- 0.5 %.
