Measurements of thermophysical and acoustic properties of four different natural oils for temperatures 293-353 K at atmospheric pressure are presented. The results suggest a presence of correlation between thermophysical and acoustic properties of oils. This correlation indicates a possibility to interpret a heat transfer in complex hydrocarbon systems as a result of hyperacoustic sonic motions with their absorption and dispersion on density fluctuations taken into account.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
