The Thermal Conductivity of Oxygen

PMCID: PMC6687604  PMID: 34566085

Abstract

The paper presents new experimental measurements of the thermal conductivity of oxygen for thirteen isotherms at temperatures from 78 to 310 K with pressures to 70 MPa and densities from 0 to 40 mol/L. The measurements were made with a transient hot wire apparatus and they cover a wide range of physical states including the dilute gas, the moderately dense gas, the near critical region, the compressed liquid states, and the vapor at temperatures below the critical temperature. The thermal conductivity surface is represented with an equation that is based in part on an existing correlation of the dilute gas. The data are compared with the experimental measurements of others through the new correlation. The new measurements show that the critical enhancement extends to quite high temperatures, about 300 K. The precision (2o) of the oxygen measurements is between 0.5 and 0.8 percent for wire temperature transients of 4 to 5 K, while the accuracy is estimated to be 1.5 percent.

1. Introduction

Thermal conductivity values are necessary whenever a heat transfer problem is to be evaluated. In addition, thermal conductivity is a property of fundamental interest in developing the theory of fluids. Accurate measurements of thermal conductivity are of considerable difficulty. Methods and geometries abound, each with its adherents and its inherent drawbacks. The steady state hot wire experiment is one of the older, well established methods. The transient hot wire method used here has come into its own only with recent advances in digital electronics. The evolution of the modern transient hot wire experiment is traced in an earlier paper [1]1 where a complete description of the apparatus is given.

A search of the literature reveals a relative abundance of papers on the thermal conductivity of oxygen [2]. However, measurements that cover a wide range in both temperature and density or pressure are rare [3,4], and as we shall see, differ considerably. It is, therefore, not surprising that efforts to correlate the thermal conductivity surface of oxygen [5] are beset with difficulties, and that the results are of doubtful accuracy. In this paper, new experimental measurements are presented that cover a large range in density for every isotherm, i.e., 0 to 19 mol/L for 310 K and 0 to 40 mol/L for 78 K. The new results and a theoretical calculation for the dilute gas [6,7] are used to fashion a new correlation for the thermal conductivity surface of oxygen between 78 and 310 K for pressures up to 70 MPa. The new surface reveals that the critical enhancement extends out to about 300 K.

2. Method

A hot wire system normally involves a vertical, cylindrical symmetry where the wire serves both as heating element and as thermometer. Almost without exception platinum is the wire of choice. The mathematical model that one attempts to approximate is that of an infinite line source of heat suspended vertically in an infinite medium. The method is labelled transient because the power is applied abruptly and the measurement is of short duration. The working equation is based on a specific solution of Fourier’s law and can be found in standard texts (see for example reference [8], page 261).

T(t)Tref=ΔT=q4πλln(4Ka2C)t (1)

Where T(t) is the temperature of the wire at time t;

Tref is the reference temperature, the temperature of the cell;

q is the applied power;

λ is the thermal conductivity of the fluid, a function of both temperature and density;

K is the thermal diffusivity of the fluid, i.e., K = λ/ϱCp. K is normally taken at the temperature Tref and is nearly constant since the fluid properties do not change drastically with a small increase in temperature;

a is the radius of the wire; and

ln C = γ, where γ is Euler’s constant, γ = 0.5772…

The relation given by eq (1) implies a straight line for a plot of ΔT versus ln(t). In practice systematic deviations occur at both short and long times. However, for each experimental measurement there exists a range of times over which eq (1) is valid, that is the relation between ΔT and ln(t) is linear. This range of validity is determined from 250 measured ΔT-t pairs by selecting a beginning time t1 and an ending time t2. The slope of the ΔT vs ln(t) relation is obtained over the valid range, i.e., between times t1 and t2, and using the applied power the thermal conductivity is calculated from eq (1). The temperature assigned to the measurement of λ is given by

T=Tref+12[ΔT(t1)+ΔT(t2)] (2)

The density assigned to the measurement of λ is taken from an equation of state using an experimentally measured pressure and the temperature assigned above. The experimentally determined temperature rise of the wire is ΔTw. A number of corrections account for the departure of the real instrument from the ideal model:

ΔT=ΔTwΣδTi (3)

These corrections δTi have been fully described elsewhere [9]; the most important at lower times is δT1, the effect of the finite heat capacity of the wire.

3. Apparatus

A detailed description of the apparatus, of the experimental procedure, of the wire calibration, of the data reduction, and of the apparatus performance are given in the earlier paper [1]. A brief description of the system follows.

We use a long or primary hot wire approximately 10 cm in length. Its resistance varies from about 20 Ω at 76 K to 90 Ω at 298 K. A short or compensating wire is approximately 5 cm in length and its resistance varies from 10 to 45 Ω. Both wires are mounted in a Wheatstone bridge to provide end effect compensation. Voltages are measured directly with a fast response digital voltmeter (DVM). The DVM is controlled by a minicomputer, which also handles the switching of the power and the logging of the data. The measurement of thermal conductivity for a single point is accomplished by balancing the bridge as close to null as is practical at the cell or reference temperature. The lead resistances, the hot wire resistances, and the ballast resistors are read first with a very small applied voltage. Then the power supply is set to the desired power and the voltage developed across the hridge as a function of time is read and stored. The basic data form a set of 250 voltage readings taken at 3 ms intervals. The other variables measured include the applied power, the cell temperature, and the pressure. All of the pertinent data are written by the minicomputer onto a magnetic tape for subsequent evaluation.

For each isotherm, the data on the magnetic tape are processed on a large computer. In addition to the reduction of the raw data, i.e., the conversion of bridge offset voltages to resistance changes and then to temperature changes, the large computer also handles the wire calibration data and evaluates the best straight line for the ΔT-ln(t) data and determines the thermal conductivity.

The samples used are research grade oxygen stated by the supplier to be a minimum of 99.994 mol percent oxygen. The impurities listed were 17 ppm hydrocarbons, 3 ppm argon, 20 ppm nitrogen, 16 ppm krypton, and 3 ppm water. The samples were run through molecular sieve and through a 65 micron line filter when routed through the compressor. We used a small diaphragm compressor as a pressure intensifier, and observed normal precautions for high pressure and high vacuum.

One of the additional design considerations for the cell was liquid oxygen safety since the interior of the cell is exposed to very high pressure 70 MPa (10,000 psi) liquid. The materials directly exposed to liquid oxygen have been limited to beryllium copper, copper, stainless steel, silver, teflon, and a polyimide (kapton) all of which have been found to be “oxygen compatible” [10]. Cleaning procedures for cell, wire supports, capillary and sample handling system were extensive [11].

Several changes from the apparatus paper [1] were incorporated into the data reduction process; one involves a digital filter applied to the voltages measured across the bridge, the second changes the deviation plot of experimental temperature rises from the calculated straight line from logarithmic to linear.

The basic data in the experiment are the voltages measured across the bridge which, when plotted against time, form a logarithmic curve as shown in figure 7 of the apparatus paper [1]. Noise levels in the readings were ascribed to ac pickup. For some of the experimental points the noise level can be reduced considerably hy employing a digital filtering process. Briefly, the raw data are fitted to a logarithmic curve. The remainder forms the noise spectrum which was shown to correspond to a frequency of 60 cycles with harmonics at 120 and 240 cycles. The periodicity of the noise spectrum corresponds to 50 measurements exactly. For those experimental points where the voltages follow a logarithmic curve over all of the measurement time, four or even five cycles of the noise spectrum can be identified uniquely, averaged, and subtracted from the input. Figure 1 illustrates the effect of the digital filtering technique for point 22016. Shown are the plot of ΔT vs ln(t) and the deviations of the experimental temperatures rises from the straight line without, and then with filtering.

Effect of the digital filtering technique for point 22016.

Application of the digital filtering results only in a reduction of the least squares straight line regression error, STAT. The thermal conductivity values change very little, in rare instances as much as 0.2 percent. Not all of the experimental points are amenable to the filtering process because several cycles of the noise spectrum are required to identify it uniquely. For measurements to be made in the future on other fluids we plan to incorporate an electronic filter into the apparatus.

4. Results

To define the thermal conductivity surface of oxygen a grand total of 1628 points were measured. Of these 162 points involved the alignment of the cell, and 340 points were rejected for experimental reasons such as insufficient experimental time of measurement, inadequate equilibrium, experimental density too low, ΔT-ln(t) relation not linear enough, etc. The remaining 1126 valid points are distributed among 13 isotherms as shown in table 1. The portion of the PVT surface covered by the measurements is shown in density-temperature coordinates in figure 2. The fluid states measured in this experiment include the dilute gas, dense gas, the near critical states, vapor at temperatures below critical, compressed liquid states, and metastable liquid states at densities below saturation. On each isotherm measurements were made at a number of different pressure levels. At the low temperatures the spacing was about 7 MPa (1000 psia) in pressure. At higher temperatures the spacing in pressure levels was arranged to give a spacing in density of about 1 mol/L. At each pressure level several different power levels were used, resulting in slightly different experimental temperatures and densities. The pressure, temperature, and applied power are measured directly, the thermal conductivity and the associated regression error are obtained through the data reduction program, while the density is calculated from an equation of state [7] using the measured pressure and temperature. Each point is adjusted to the nominal isotherm temperature by a slight shift in temperature using the correlating equation given in the next section. The deviation of the points adjusted to isotherms from the correlation is calculated at the same time. All of the experimental and adjusted data are assembled and presented in table 2.2 An overview of the measurements is given in figure 3 where the adjusted data and the isotherms calculated from the correlation are plotted.

Figure 3.

Overview of the thermal conductivity measurements on oxygen. Each isotherm is on a separate scale. The scales are offset from each other by 0.02 W/m⋅K for better visibility.

The apparatus is not specifically designed to measure thermal conductivity in the critical region. Nevertheless, measurements were made as close to critical as is possible with the present system bearing in mind that the measurements must be free of convection. The measurements closest to critical temperature and critical density are most likely to experience convection. We will, therefore, look at the 159 K isotherm where the actual temperatures range between 158.229 and 162.531 K, i.e., between 1.02 and 1.05 Tc. On this isotherm densities between 5 and 20 mol/L were difficult to execute because rather large changes in density occur near the wire after the power is turned on and the wire starts heating. In extreme cases the change in density was as much as 1 mol/L even though the applied power was reduced considerably resulting in very small temperature rises. In addition, the data analysis had to be restricted to shorter times than normal resulting in an increase in the regression statistic, STAT. For these and all measurements the absence of convection is verified by replicate measurements at the same cell temperature and cell pressure with different power levels. This procedure changes the temperature rise in the wire and hence the temperature rise in the gas near the wire. The technique is quite analogous to changing the ΔT for a steady state parallel plate system. Extensive comparisons of the effect of varying the power level for the transient hot wire system are given for N2 and He in the apparatus paper (figures 12 and 15 in ref. [1]) and for argon in table 2 of ref. [12]. As an example for the present measurements on oxygen consider points 21193, 21194, and 21195 in table 2 at a nominal density of 12.6 mol/L, or 0.92 ϱc. The power level varies by a factor of 2, and experimental temperature and experimental density are perforce somewhat different; however, the measured thermal conductivities differ from each other by no more than 1.8 percent as compared through the correlation. For densities between 4 and 7 mol/L on the 159 K isotherm a convection contribution is inferred from the ΔT vs ln(t) plots, therefore, these measurements were discarded.

A second argument which implies the absence of convection in the present measurements is to compare them to the best current theoretical predictions. This is done for the 159 K isotherm in figure 7 which will be discussed in the next section. The agreement between predicted and experimental values is found to be within experimental error, the experiment generally being lower. We may thus conclude that convection is absent.

5. Correlation of the Thermal Conductivity Surface

It is generally accepted that the thermal conductivity should be correlated in terms of density and temperature [5] rather than temperature and pressure because over a wide range of experimental conditions the behavior of thermal conductivity is dominated by its density dependence. This preferred technique requires an equation of state [7] to translate measured pressures into equivalent densities. The dependence of thermal conductivity on temperature and density is normally expressed as

λ(ϱ,T)=λo(T)+λexcess(ϱ,T)+Δλcritical(ϱ,T) (4)

The first term on the right of eq (4) is the dilute gas term which is independent of density. The second is the excess thermal conductivity. The first two terms taken together are sometimes called the “background” thermal conductivity. The final term is the critical point enhancement. An example showing the size and shape of each contributing term is given in figure 4 for the 159 K isotherm.

Figure 4.

5.1. Term 1, the Dilute Gas

Values for the dilute gas at zero density have been calculated by Hanley and Ely [6] using kinetic theory equations and an m-6-8 model potential. These results were presented as a curve fit by McCarty [7] in connection with an equation of state for oxygen. The exact expression is

λo(T)=[A1T1+A2T2/3+A3T1/3+A4+A5T1/3+A6T2/3+A7T+A8T4/3+A9T5/3]/1000. (5)

with λo in W/m⋅K and T in kelvin. The coefficients Ai are given in the appendix.

To obtain a value at zero density from the experiment we must extrapolate the measurements at low densities to zero density, usually with a low order polynominal. A comparison of the extrapolations of the experimental data of table 2 and the values obtained from eq (5) is given in table 3. The deviations are seen to be very close to one percent. We will, therefore, use eq (5) to calculate the values of λo in the correlation, in effect constraining the new correlation to the kinetic theory expressions.

5.2. Term 2, the Excess Thermal Conductivity

The expression used for the excess thermal conductivity is as follows:

λexcess(ϱ,T)=αϱ+δ[eβϱγ1.0] (6)

where the parameters α, β, γ, δ are functions of temperature as follows:

α=B1T
β=B2+B3T+B4T2
γ=B5+B6T+B7T2
δ=B8+B9T+B10/T2.

The B coefficients are given in the appendix.

The use of an exponential function for term 2 is quite conventional [see for example references 13, or 5], however, several remarks regarding the analysis must be made. First, it is customary to omit those points which show a critical enhancement from the fitting of the excess thermal conductivity along an isotherm. For the present set of data the critical enhancement extends to nearly 2Tc. In the first pass at determining the B coefficients roughly one half of all the data had to be omitted. Second, the expression αϱ is necessary if the exponential part of the term is to fit the isotherms adequately. At the same time, αϱ must be restricted to no more than half of the total excess thermal conductivity at the low densities. The other half has to be reserved for the contribution of the exponential part of the term. If this is not done, severe systematic deviations will result at the low densities. Third, since the thermal conductivity varies by nearly a factor of 10, and since the experimental measurements at high densities predominate, a weighting of 1/λ was used for this set of data. Fourth, a parameter θ used in the analysis of propane [14] to account for the high density behavior of the excess thermal conductivity was also considered here. The θ is a function of density with different contributions above and below critical density. It turns out that a term of this type fails to represent the oxygen thermal conductivity surface adequately. In particular, the isotherms at low temperatures, 77–145 K, are too steep, and the increase in spacing in the λ-ϱ plane required between the 121 and 99 K isotherms and the 99 and 77 K isotherms cannot be achieved correctly. The behavior expected of the thermal conductivity surface over a wide range of temperatures and pressures including the saturation boundary is discussed in reference [15], With the exception of the parameter δ the parameters are well behaved and vary slowly with temperature. Their dependence on temperature is shown in figure 5.

Figure 5.

Figure 5.

Parameters α-δ of the excess thermal conductivity as a function of temperature.

Finally, if we extrapolate all of the isotherms to liquid densities, say around 40 mol/L, then the observation made by Le Neindre [16] seems to be born out. Le Neindre observed that at high pressures at the liquid-solid transition the thermal conductivity coefficient is density dependent only.

5.3. Term 3, The Critical Enhancement

With terms 1 and 2 of the thermal conductivity surface determined, we turn our attention to the remainder, the critical enhancement. The data, shown in figure 6, are obtained by substracting terms 1 and 2 from the experimental values. For this analysis we will consider two separate regions which are shown in ϱ-T coordinates in figure 2. The first region, which we will call the critical region proper, is nearly rectangular and corresponds roughly to the range of conditions for which Sengers, et al. [17] recommend the use of a scaled equation of state. Defining the reduced coordinates

ΔT*=(TTc)/TcandΔϱ*=(ϱϱc)/ϱc (7)

the boundaries of the first region as recommended by Sengers, et al. [17] are

|ΔT*|0.03and|Δϱ*|0.25 (8)

For oxygen Tc = 154.581 K and ϱc = 13.63 mol/L. Therefore, the region of concern is bounded approximately by 150.⩽ T⩽ 160. K and 10. ⩽ ϱ ⩽ 17. mol/L.

Figure 6.

Figure 6.

Term 3, the critical enhancement or anomalous increase along isotherms. Each isotherm is on a separate scale. The spacing between isotherms is 0.004 W/m • K. For the 159K isotherm the arrows indicate the switch from region 1 to region 2 in the computation.

We note that only one isotherm of the present measurements, 159 K, falls within this region, and then it is close to the highest temperature, the extreme edge of the region.

The second region, which we will call the extended critical region, shown in a triangle in figure 2, covers those densities and temperatures for which the present measurements reveal an anomalous increase above the background conductivity, i.e,, a critical enhancement. Since nearly all of the present measurements fall into region two, the emphasis of the analysis will be placed here. In addition, we will include the 159 K isotherm into the fitting of the region two in order to provide a smooth transition to region one, even though as mentioned above this isotherm properly belongs into region one.

Region 1, The Critical Region Proper

Modern theoretical predictions on the calculation of Δλc are given by Hanley, et al. [5] and Sengers, et al. [17]. Both sets of authors recommend a scaling equation in the close vicinity of the critical point and switch to an equation of state, usually a modified Benedict-Webb-Rubin type, further away from the critical point. Hanley, et al. [5] make the switch at 0.025 Tc or 158.445 K while Sengers, et al. [17] use 0.03 Tc or 159.218 K. A comparison of the Δλc obtained from the experiment and as adjusted to 159 K in table 2 with references [5] and [17] and with the equations developed in the next section is given in figure 7 for a temperature of 159 K. We note that for reference [5] the shift to the BWR equation of state has already taken place. The defects of this equation when used to calculate the compressibility are evident, yielding a distinct asymmetry of the Δλc toward lower densities when compared to the other calcultions. The use of a PVT surface by Weber [18], i.e., a polynomial representation of isotherms, with the equations in [5] improves the calculated Δλc considerably. For reference [17] the calculation at this temperature is still in the scaled equation mode with but a slight asymmetry toward lower densities. The empirical representation developed in the next section, eqs (913), lies intermediate between [5] and [17] and exhibits even less asymmetry toward the lower densities. We conclude that for this temperature the experimental results agree within experimental error with current theoretical predictions.

Region 2, The Extended Critical Region

What we wish to provide for region two is a mathematical description of the Δλc(ϱ,T) which will represent the available data. In developing the analytical representation for term 3 we find that the surface to be represented exhibits considerable fine structure. The aspects that must be accommodated in particular are: one, the critical enhancement persists to quite high temperatures. It persists to somewhere around 2 Tc for oxygen quite similar to that initially reported for argon [12,19]. A second aspect is that this increase is centered on a density, ϱcenter, which is a function of temperature. Close to critical ϱcenter is nearly equal to the critical density, but at higher temperatures ϱcenter changes to lower densities as will be seen in figure 6. A third aspect is that the data proved to be slightly asymmetric about ϱcenter.

We started by looking at the prior art in the analysis of the critical point anomaly [5,17,20,21]. However, it became apparent very quickly that the expressions developed previously for Δλc cannot be used at the higher temperatures involved here. Specifically, we tried to use the prescriptions given in references [5] and [17] by adjusting the amplitude, the damping factor, or both to values seen experimentally. This procedure fails to represent the data. The reason for this is as follows. The combination of variables including the correlation length, the compressibility, the viscosity, and the damping factor yields a maximum. However, this maximum occurs at a density much higher than ϱc whereas what is needed is a maximum at a density less than ϱc. A plot of the densities at which we require the maxima to occur, i.e., ϱcenter’ and the densities where they actually occur for the procedures of references [5] and [17] is given in figure 8b below.

Figure 8.

Since the best current prescriptions fail to represent the new data we were forced to develop a new, empirical representation for the Δλc in region 2, the details of which follow.

The expression used is an error function centered upon ϱcenter multiplied by an amplitude

Δλcritical(ϱ,T)=AMPLex2 (9)

Both amplitude and centering density are chosen to be simple functions of temperature. Their behavior is shown in figure 8a and b. In figure 8a the error bands shown for the experimental isotherms represent the range of values plotted for each isotherm in figure 6 close to the density ϱcenter. The algebraic representations are

AMPL=C1/(T+C2)+C3+C4T (10)
ϱcenter=ϱc+C5(TTc)1.5 (11)

It is clear that the x in eq (9) is intended to be a function of density. The small asymmetry is achieved by providing different expressions for x above and below ϱcenter as follows;

x=C6(ϱϱcenter)forϱ>ϱcenter (12)

and

x=C6(ϱϱcenter)+C7(ϱϱcenter)5forϱ<ϱcenter (13)

Once the analytical representation for term 3 had been determined, a subsequent pass considered all of the data and all terms together in a surface fit. The coefficients Ci as determined in this surface fit are given in the appendix. Values calculated from eqs (913) for term 3 are plotted as continuous lines for isotherms 145–298 K in figure 6. We find that the critical enhancement is cut off when the amplitude of eq (10) reaches zero, i.e., approximately at 307 K.

Combining Regions 1 and 2

The simple functions developed for region 2 are designed to represent the experimental data in region 2, the extended critical region. They were not designed to incorporate the divergence of λ at T = Tc. A complete representation of the thermal conductivity surface will, therefore, require a switch from the computational scheme recommended for region 2 to a different one for region 1 that incorporates the proper divergence of λ. The details of this switch are given elsewhere [22] and they include a consideration of the light scattering measurements by Weber [23]. A brief synopsis is as follows. For region 1 we recommend the formulation of Sengers, et al. [17] which is modified in two minor ways. First, the value of Λ adopted to be 1.02 for CO2 in [17] is chosen to be 1.04 for oxygen. This number is established as a best value for Weber’s experimental points [23] for densities close to critical. The second modification is to extend the calculation using the scaled equation out to a temperature of 162.9805 K or 1.054 Tc rather than 1.03 Tc. The second change avoids an abrupt drop of about 10 percent in the value of Δλc(ϱc,T) in switching from the scaled equation to the BWR at 1.03 Tc. For region 2 we recommend eqs (913) of this paper. The boundaries between the two modes of computation are arranged to give as smooth a transition between them as possible. The temperature 162.9805 K or 1.054 Tc is the point at which the values of Δλc(ϱc,T) and Δλc(ϱcenter,T) are equal for regions 1 and 2. The crossover is shown in figure 8a where one of the dashed lines represents the extrapolation of Δλc(ϱc,T) from [17] for the scaled equation mode and the other represents the extrapolation of Δλc(ϱc,T) [5] for the BWR equation mode.

A final note concerns the extension of the calculation of Δλcritical to temperatures below critical. The normal assumption is that the isotherms below Tc mirror the behavior of isotherms above Tc, i.e., the Δλcritical for the 145 K isotherm is calculated as if that isotherm were at 164.142 K. This was done in figure 6, and it will be seen that the Δλcritical calculated for 145 K is nowhere near large enough to achieve agreement with experiment. In fact, the experimental Δλcritical for 145 K is even larger than that calculated or measured for 159 K, a temperature which is considerably closer to critical. To resolve this point additional isotherms below Tc would have to be measured.

5.4. The Thermal Conductivity Surface

Equations (513) taken together describe the major part of the thermal conductivity surface, excepting only the critical region proper, region 1 of figure 2. Coefficients for eqs (513) were determined by running alternate cycles of a linear least squares routine on six of the coefficients and one parameter, and then a general minimizing routine on the remaining parameters until the change in the total deviation sum became negligible. The three function programs describing dilute gas, the excess thermal conductivity and the Δλcritical are listed in the appendix. The function program for the Δλcritical includes the switchover to the formulation of Sengers, et al. [17] at the appropriate conditions. To complete the set of functions needed to describe the entire thermal conductivity surface, a fourth function program is listed in the appendix. This function applies to the critical region proper, region 1 of figure 2. It codes the prescription of reference [17] but restricts it to the scaled equation only. Since the variables normally available to the user are pressure and temperature, an equation of state [7] is required to find the corresponding density. Temperature and density then allow calculation of the thermal conductivity from the functions given in the appendix.

Deviations between experimental values and the calculated surface are shown for all points in figure 9 by isotherms. Some systematic deviations, notably for the 145 K and 159 K isotherms and at low densities remain. Percentage deviations for each experimental point as adjusted to an isotherm have already been shown in table 2. The percentage deviation over all 1126 points is 1.5 percent at the 1σ level.

Figure 9.

Figure 9.

Deviations between experimental values and the correlating surface along isotherms. Each isotherm is on a separate scale. The spacing between isotherms or isotherms and tick marks is 0.004 W/m·K.

5.5. Comparisons to the Results of Others

The comparisons are made through the present correlating surface. A summary of deviations between the experimental thermal conductivities of others and the calculated surface is given in table 4. The deviations for each individual point are shown in figure 10. In comparing the results from the light scattering experiment by Weber [23] we used only those points that fall into the temperature range of our measurements, i.e., above 158 K. The rms deviation of 2.8 percent between the present results and Ziebland and Burton’s [3] measurements with a concentric cylinder system represents an excellent agreement. The agreement between Ivanova, et al. [4] who used a steady state hot wire but had to know the thermal conductivity of the supporting glass tube and the present measurements is acceptable, as is the agreement with Weber [23].

The horizontal band shows the ± 1.5 percent fit of the correlating surface to the present 1126 points.

We can also compare the present correlation to a previous one by Hanley, et al. [5]. The deviations between these two surfaces were defined to be zero at zero density. At higher densities the deviations are systematic and run up to 33 percent at the highest densities. The differences between the two surface representations are illustrated in figure 11 for five isotherms of 80,120,160, 200, and 300 K.

Comparison of the correlation by Hanley, et al. [5] - - - - - - and the present correlation ______ for isotherms of 80,120,160,200, and 300 K.

Considering the critical enhancement we find that for the isotherm closest to critical, 159 K, the measurements agree with current theoretical predictions [17]. For higher temperatures the present measurements disagree with current theoretical predictions [5,17], the extent of the disagreement is shown for densities near ϱc in figure 8.

There are perhaps three reasons why the present measurements exhibit a critical enhancement to higher temperatures than previously reported. Looking at figure 6 we note that the critical enhancement at any given temperature covers a hroad range in density. Therefore, the experimental measurements should be carried out quite high pressures, preferably to a density of about 2ϱc, in order to separate the terms in eq (4) properly. In addition, the precision of the experimental measurements must be fairly high. For the present measurements the precision is a nominal 0.6 percent. Considering the first two elements, we see that at a temperature of 298 K it is nearly impossible to differentiate between potential critical enhancement and experimental precision. Finally, the functional form used to represent term 2, the excess conductivity, should be fairly well constrained. In other words, the excess subtracted at different temperatures should show a slight temperature dependence, the functional form, however, should be the same for all isotherms. In the present paper an exponential is used rather than the usual power series in density.

6. Summary

The thermal conductivity of oxygen has been measured at temperatures from 77 to 310 K with pressures to 70 MPa. The measurements cover the physical states of the dilute gas, the dense gas, the region near critical, compressed liquid states, metastable liquid states at conditions just below saturation, and vapor states at temperatures below critical and pressures less than the vapor pressure. The results were analyzed in conventional terms to develop a mathematical description of the thermal conductivity surface. The new surface reveals that the critical enhancement, or an anomalous increase in thermal conductivity, persists to reduced temperatures that are quite high, approximately 2 Tc. The center of the enhancement shifts from the critical density to lower densities at the higher temperatures, and the enhancement is slightly asymmetric about the center density.

The precision of the measurements as established by varying the applied power is 0.6 percent. The agreement between an extrapolation of the measured values to zero density and dilute gas values calculated from basic theory is around 1 percent. The accuracy of the present measurements is expected to be 1.5 percent (1σ) over much of the surface, as established by the fit of the correlating surface. This accuracy degrades to around 10 percent at 77 K and zero density and to around 6 percent in the region covering the critical enhancement at 159 K. The agreement between the present measurements and those of others ranges between 3 to 5 percent covering a wide range of temperatures, densities and including the region of the critical enhancement.
