COMMISSION ON THERMODYNAMICS
SUBCOMMITTEE ON TRANSPORT PROPERTIES

Number: 122/1/83

Title: Definitive Correlation of the Transport Properties of Fluids with Emphasis on Data for the Chemical Industry

Coordinator(s): W.A. Wakeham

Completion Date: 2001 - project terminated

Objective:
The provision of representations of critically-evaluated data for the transport properties of fluids such as may find application in chemical process design. It is only through an international grouping that a reputation for impartiality, objectivity and quality in the work can be established and maintained. The project proceeds by small groupings of workers devoted to individual fluids or groups of fluids
