A CONTINUING SYSTEMATIC PROGRAM ON TABLES OF THERMOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS.

Abstract

This technical report covers work in a continuing systematic program on the thermophysical properties of materials involving the literature search, collection, codification, and organization, and data extraction, compilation, evaluation, correlation, analysis, and synthesis, the preparation of 'intermediate tables' presenting the total available experimental information, and the final preparation of internally consistent tables of 'best data' referred to as 'Tables of Recommended Most Probable Values.' The work reported on consists of data tables projects on the thermal conductivity, specific hear, thermal radiative properties (emittance, reflectance, absorptance, transmittance), thermal diffusivity, and thermal expansion of elements, alloys, compounds, mixtures, and systems, and the thermal conductivity, specific heat, and viscosity of liquids and gases. Property data are presented in both tabular and graphical forms with accompanying tables giving specifications and characterizations of the test specimens. The resulting data tables are disseminated at large through the 13-volume 'TPRC Series on Thermophysical Properties of Matter', while the resulting bibliographic information is disseminated through the 'Thermophysical Properties Research Literature Retrieval Guide.' This report does not contain the completed thousands of data sheets, but does reproduce in the Appendix the Table of Contents and the Grouping of Materials and List of Figures and Tables for each of the first seven volumes (which contain over 8000 pages) of the TPRC Series to show the scope of their coverage.
