1、Designation: D 4362 93 (Reapproved 2003)Standard Specification forPropane Thermophysical Property Tables1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4362; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last r
2、evision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 The propane thermophysical property tables are for usein the calculation of the pressure-volume-temperature (PVT),thermodyn
3、amic, and transport properties of propane for pro-cess design and operations. Tables are provided for gaseousand liquid propane at temperatures between 85 and 600K atpressures to 100 MPa. These tables were developed by theNational Institute of Standards and Technology (formerly theNational Bureau of
4、 Standards) upon culmination of four yearsof effort in acquiring available physical properties data, inperforming experimental measurements, and in formulatingthese tables for use in thermal computations.2. Sponsorship2.1 The preparation of the tables and supporting work wasdone by the National Inst
5、itute of Standards and Technology(NIST) under the sponsorship of the Gas Research Institute, theAmerican Gas Association, and the Standard Reference DataProgram of NIST.3. Applicability3.1 These tables apply directly only to pure gaseous andliquid propane. However, it is expected that they will find
6、substantial use in mathematical models and tables for thethermophysical properties of mixtures containing propane,such as natural gas.4. Tables4.1 These thermophysical property tables2are:4.1.1 Thermophysical Properties of Coexisting Gaseous andLiquid Propane, in SI units (Table in Appendix G, pp.68
7、56863).4.1.2 Thermophysical Properties of Propane, along isobars,in SI units (Table in Appendix G, pp. 6887213).4.2 These tables were produced by equations from a com-puter package, “NIST Thermophysical Properties of FluidsDatabase 12” (also designated MIPROPS) of the StandardReference Data Program
8、of NIST.4A wide selection of units(SI units, engineering units, chemical units) is available withthis program.5. Additional Information5.1 These tables were originally published by the AmericanChemical Society and the American Institute of Physics for theNational Institute of Standards and Technolog
