In
this work, thermal conductivities of a homologous series of
liquids n-pentane, isopentane, 1-pentene, and 1-pentanol
were measured from 253 to 373 K at pressures up to 30 MPa with a transient
hot-wire apparatus. The relative expanded uncertainty of the reported
data was estimated to be 2.0% with a confidence level of 0.95 (k = 2). The polynomial thermal conductivity model was used
to correlate the experimental values for each of the fluids. The average
absolute percentage deviations of the experimental results from fitting
were 0.3, 0.3, 0.3, and 0.1%. Comparisons were provided between the
data obtained in this work and published literature.
