5.iii.ii Thermal conductivity

According to kinetic theory of gases, thermal conductivity of monatomic gases is independent of pressure and is proportional to foursquare root of temperature. The predicted pressure dependence is valid upwardly to 10 atmospheres merely temperature dependent is also weak. The temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity of gas can exist expressed every bit

(5.60) k = k 0 T / T 0 n

where k0 is thermal electrical conductivity at T0 K. Eucken'southward equation

is widely used for interpretation of thermal electrical conductivity of gases. Cp, R, M and μ are respectively specific estrus, gas abiding, molecular weight and viscosity. Table five.half-dozen gives the thermal electrical conductivity of some common gases. It shows that thermal conductivity of hydrogen is much higher than other gases.

Thermal Conductivity of Liquids

Liquid thermal conductivities, kL, are required in many chemical and procedure engineering science applications where heat transfer is prevalent. They are required to evaluate the Nusselt number hd/k, the Prandtl number cμ/g, and in correlations to predict the idealized condensing moving-picture show coefficient based upon laminar liquid flow over a cooled surface. The thermal electrical conductivity of a saturated liquid is:

(2-5) k 50 = A + BT + CT 2

where k50 = thermal electrical conductivity of saturated liquid, microcal/south.cm.°C

A, B, and C = correlation constants

T = temperature, K

Values of kL for most common organic liquids range between 250 and 400 μcal/cm.southward.°C at temperatures below the normal boiling point. Water and other highly polar molecules accept values that are ii to three times larger. Except for h2o, aqueous solutions, and multihydroxy molecules, the thermal electrical conductivity of most liquids decreases with temperature. Below or shut to the normal boiling bespeak, the subtract is virtually linear. Methods of computing gL accept been reviewed [2]. The estimator program PROG21 gives a routine for calculating kL of liquids, and Tabular array 2-1 shows the results for h2o. Figure 2-4 is a plot of thermal conductivity of water from 0°C to 350°C

Simulation results.

The thermal conductivity of liquid HMX at atmospheric pressure is summarized in Table five. The thermal conductivity exhibits a much weaker temperature dependence than was found for the other transport properties. Whereas the shear viscosity and self-diffusion coefficients vary past orders of magnitude between 550 and 800 Grand, the thermal conductivity merely varies past ∼40% over the aforementioned temperature interval. Such beliefs is consistent with experimental information on aromatic hydrocarbons [53] and can be explained by differences in the free energy, momentum and mass transfer mechanisms. In order to transport energy, a molecule demand only oscillate in its local "cage", interacting with its neighboring molecules without disrupting the local structure. As the primary mechanism for energy send does not involve long-range molecular transport, the thermal conductivity is relatively insensitive to temperature. In contrast, (zero frequency) momentum and mass transfer require hopping of the molecules from cage to muzzle, a process involving severe disruption of the local structure. This process is thermally activated with a large activation energy (14.5 kcal/mol), resulting in a strong temperature dependence of the viscosity and self-improvidence coefficients.

In Fig. 8 we show a comparison of the thermal conductivity for liquid HMX obtained from our NEMD simulations with measured values for crystalline HMX [54] also equally values used in combustion models for HMX [55]. Despite being weak, the temperature dependence of the thermal electrical conductivity of liquid HMX is not featureless. The thermal conductivity exhibits a sharp drop in the temperature interval from the melting point (550 G) upwardly to 650 K. At higher temperatures the thermal electrical conductivity exhibits most no temperature dependence. The predicted value at 550 K is consistent with the HMX crystal information [54]. The thermal conductivity used in some combustion models [55] agrees to within most 25% with our NEMD predictions over the entire temperature interval.

Fig. eight. The thermal conductivity of HMX as a function of temperature. Symbols: this work (liquid phase); solid bold line: experiment (crystal phase); solid thin line: semi-empirical form used in some combustion models. The dashed line is an extrapolation of the experimental information for HMX crystal into liquid region.

The importance of thermal conductivity in high explosives initiation is quite scenario-dependent [47]. On a microsecond time calibration comparable to the chemical reaction induction fourth dimension for a hot spot, estrus conduction is simply relevant over very small distances (micron or less). By contrast, heat conduction affects distances of the gild of centimeters over the hours-long time calibration of a cookoff experiment. Menikoff and Sewell have presented arguments indicating that heat conduction is not a suitable machinery for growth of hot spots in an explosive, nor is it the mechanism for steady detonation propagation. Information technology is, nonetheless, an important gene in low-to-moderate speed deflagration waves (mm/sec to cm/sec). At higher speeds, convection of hot gases through pores in the cloth exceeds oestrus conduction every bit the dominant mechanism. Finally, thermal conduction is inversely proportional to the maximum temperature increment ΔTmax attainable via viscous shear in the melt.

We close our discussion of thermal electrical conductivity with the observation that experimental determinations of this belongings at elevated temperatures have large error bars. Indeed, the two measurements of which we are aware differ by roughly 50%. (The "experimental" line in Fig. 8 is the recommended linear class published by Hanson-Parr and Parr in Ref. [54] Part of the complication at elevated temperatures arises due to chemical reaction, equally well as issues of whether phase changes take gone to completion throughout the sample (kinetics versus thermodynamics, as well as the possibility of complicated stress states within a pressed sample "resisting" transformation from one polymorph to another). The not-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulation described above can be extended to yield temperature-dependent thermal conductivities of each solid phase of HMX. We think such simulations would be useful, in light of experimental difficulties. Simulations of the solid would yield thermal conductivity tensors, simply anisotropic values could be obtained via suitable averaging.

14.2.6 Thermal conductivity

Accurate measurement of thermal conductivity of liquid metals and alloys is usually more than difficult than the measurement of conductivity and thermal diffusivity. The source of difficulty is mainly related to problems with making accurate estrus catamenia measurements. Too in that location is possibility of some flows in the liquid sample. Thermal conductivity is direct related to the change in the atomic vibrational frequency. For a number of non-metallic substances it is establish that

λ G = 2.4 × 10 3 ,

where λ is the thermal electrical conductivity, M is the molecular weight. Since free electrons are responsible for the electrical and thermal conductivities of conductors in both solid and liquid states, many researchers employ the Wiedemann-Franz-Lorenz law to chronicle the thermal conductivity to the electrical resistivity:

λ ρ east T = π κ ii 3 e two L 0 ,

where κ is the Boltzmann constant, e is the electron charge. The constant

L 0 = π ii κ two iii due east 2 = 2.45 × 10 8 Due west Ω K 2 ,

is the Lorenz number. The validity of this relationship was confirmed experimentally with loftier accuracy by many researchers. The thermal conductivity values of various liquid metals at dissimilar temperatures are given in Table fourteen.3b. 6–8

Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium and Physical Properties for Distillation

Jürgen Gmehling , Michael Kleiber , in Distillation, 2014

two.nine.4 Viscosity, thermal conductivity, and surface tension

The viscosities of liquid and vapor, the thermal conductivities of liquid and vapor, and the surface tension play a subordinate role in comparison to phase equilibrium and enthalpies. Viscosities and surface tensions are used in hydraulic calculations for both tray and packed columns. High-precision correlations are not necessary, but large errors must of course be avoided. Wrong unit conversions in particular can cause erroneous orders of magnitude, and in this case even the surface tension can be responsible for a serious error in the column design. Viscosities and thermal conductivities are used in the pattern of the reboiler and condenser, where they play a decisive role. Viscosities and surface tension are used likewise in rate-based models; the liquid conductivity is used if a oestrus transfer between the two phases is evaluated. Correlations, their coefficients, and interpretation methods are given in Refs [3] and [49].

Physical PROPERTIES OF LIQUIDS AND GASES

3.7 THERMAL Conductivity OF LIQUIDS AND SOLIDS

Thermal conductivity of liquids and solids is essential in many chemical and process technology applications where estrus transfer is prevalent. The liquid thermal conductivity is required to summate the Nusselt number, hd/k, and the Prandtl number, cμ/k, and in correlations to predict the arcadian condensing picture coefficient based upon laminar liquid flow over a cooled surface.

For many simple organic liquids, the thermal conductivities are between x and 100 times larger than those of the low pressure gases at the same temperatures, and the effect of pressure is minimal. Additionally, increasing the temperature invariably decreases the thermal conductivities, which is feature of those noted for liquid viscosities. Although the temperature dependence of the latter is noticeable and nigh exponential, that for thermal conductivities is weak and nearly linear [1]. Values of k liq for most common organic liquid range between 0.10 and 0.17 W/(m K) at temperatures below the normal humid point, but h2o, ammonia, and highly polar molecules are of values which are several times every bit large.

Liquid thermal conductivity data take been compiled by Jameison et al. [14] and Liley et al. [15], and constants that may be used to calculate k 50 for pure liquids at different temperatures are tabulated in Daubert et al. [7], Miller et al. [16], and Yaws [13].

For inorganic compounds, the correlation for thermal conductivity of liquid and solid every bit a function of temperature is [two]:

(3-12) g = A + B T + C T 2

where

k = thermal electrical conductivity of liquid or solid, West/(m K)

A, B, and C = regression coefficients for chemical compound

T = temperature, K.

For organic compounds, the correlation for thermal conductivity of liquid equally a function of temperature is [2]:

(three-xiii) log ten k liq = A + B ( 1 T C ) 2 / 7

where

k liq = thermal conductivity of liquid, Due west/(m K)

A, B, and C = regression coefficients for chemic chemical compound

T = temperature, Yard.

Very express experimental data for liquid thermal conductivities are available at temperatures in the region of the melting point. Additionally, in that location are very few reliable data at temperatures above a reduced temperature of T r = 0.65. Therefore, the values in the regions of melting point and reduced temperatures above a reduced 0.65 should be considered rough approximations. The values in the intermediate region (to a higher place melting point and below reduced temperature of 0.65) are more than accurate. The Excel spreadsheet plan from the companion website (liquid-thermal-conductivity.xls) calculates the liquid and solid thermal conductivities of compounds between the range of the minimum and the maximum temperatures denoted past T min and T max, and at 25°C. Table C-7 in Appendix C lists the liquid thermal conductivity of chemic compounds, and Figures 3-7a, three–7b and 3-7c show plots for thermal conductivity of benzene (Chalf-dozenH6), water (HiiO), and atomic number 26 (Fe) respectively every bit a function of temperature.

Solution

Substituting the correlation coefficients from Tabular array C-seven in Appendix C, and the temperature of 340 K into the correlation equation yields

Calculate the liquid thermal conductivity of h2o (H2O) at a temperature of 320 K.

Solution

Substituting the correlation coefficients from Tabular array C-vii in Appendix C and the temperature of 320 K in the correlation equation yields

k = ( 0.2758 ) + ( 4.612 × ten 3 ) ( 320 ) + ( 5.5391 × x half dozen ) ( 320 two ) = 0.6328 West / ( mK )

Conversion

The units used for thermal conductivity are Westward/(1000 K). Conversion of these to Purple or cgs units is as follows.

West / ( m K ) × 0.5778 = Btu / ( hft R ) Due west / ( m k ) × 0.8604 = kcal / ( cmhK ) Due west / ( m Thou ) × 2.390 × ten 3 = cal / ( cmsK ) .

or

Btu / ( hft R ) × 1.731 = W / ( mK ) kcal / ( cm h 1000 ) × 1.162 = Due west / ( mK ) cal / ( cm southward K ) × 418.4 = W / ( mK )

Heat-transfer Equipment

12.11.2 Puddle boiling

In the nucleate boiling region the heat-transfer coefficient is dependent on the nature and condition of the heat-transfer surface, and it is non possible to nowadays a universal correlation that volition give accurate predictions for all systems. Palen and Taborek (1962) have reviewed the published correlations and compared their suitability for employ in reboiler design.

The correlation given by Forster and Zuber (1955) can be used to approximate puddle boiling coefficients, in the absence of experimental data. Their equation can exist written in the form:

(12.41) h nb = 0.00122 k L 0.79 C pL 0.45 ρ L 0.49 σ 0.5 μ Fifty 0.29 λ 0.24 ρ ν 0.24 T w T s 0.24 p w p s 0.75

where

h nb = nucleate, pool, boiling coefficient, Westward/m2  °C,

yard L = liquid thermal electrical conductivity, W/m   °C,

C pL = liquid estrus capacity, J/kg   °C,

ρ L = liquid density, kg/chiliadthree,

μ L = liquid viscosity, Ns/mtwo,

λ = latent heat, J/kg,

ρ five = vapour density, kg/g3,

T w = wall, surface temperature, °C,

T s = saturation temperature of boiling liquid °C,

p w = saturation pressure corresponding to the wall temperature, T w , N/m2,

p s = saturation pressure corresponding to T southward , N/m2,

σ = surface tension, N/grand.

The reduced pressure level correlation given by Mostinski (1963) is simple to apply and gives values that are as reliable equally those given by more complex equations.

(12.42) h nb = 0.104 P c 0.69 q 0.7 1.8 P P c 0.17 + 4 P P c 1.2 + ten P P c 10

where

P = operating pressure level, bar,

P c = liquid critical force per unit area, bar,

q = heat flux, W/chiliad2.

Note. q  = h nb (T west   T s ).

Mostinski'south equation is convenient to utilise when information on the fluid physical properties are non bachelor.

Equations 12.41 and 12.42 are for boiling unmarried component fluids; for mixtures the coefficient will mostly exist lower than is predicted past these equations. The equations can exist used for close boiling range mixtures, say less than v   °C; and for wider boiling ranges with a suitable factor of safety (run into Section 12.eleven.vi).

Critical oestrus flux

It is of import to check that the design, and operating, oestrus flux is well below the disquisitional flux. Several correlations are available for predicting the critical flux. That given by Zuber et al. (1961) has been found to give satisfactory predictions for utilise in reboiler and vaporizer design. In SI units, Zuber's equation tin exist written as:

(12.43) q c = 0.131 λ σg ρ L ρ ν ρ ν ii i / four

where

q c = maximum, disquisitional, rut flux, West/thou2,

thou = gravitational dispatch, 9.81   1000/south2.

Mostinski too gives a reduced pressure level equation for predicting the maximum critical heat flux:

(12.44) q c = iii.67 × 10 iv P c P P c 0.35 1 P P c 0.9

Film boiling

The equation given by Bromley (1950) can be used to estimate the oestrus-transfer coefficient for film boiling on tubes. Heat transfer in the film-humid region will exist controlled past conduction through the picture of vapour, and Bromley's equation is similar to the Nusselt equation for condensation, where conduction is occurring through the motion-picture show of condensate.

(12.45) h f b = 0.62 k ν 3 ρ L ρ ν ρ ν μ ν d o T westward T south 1 / 4

where h fb is the film humid heat-transfer coefficient; the suffix ν refers to the vapour stage and d o is in meters. It must be emphasized that process reboilers and vaporizers will always exist designed to operate in the nucleate boiling region. The heating medium would exist selected, and its temperature controlled, to ensure that in operation the temperature deviation is well below that at which the critical flux is reached. For instance, if directly heating with steam would give too high a temperature difference, the steam would be used to oestrus water, and hot water used as the heating medium. Above temperatures where steam tin can be used, hot oil circuits are ofttimes used for reboilers, so every bit to avert direct firing of the reboiler.

Case 12.8

Gauge the heat-transfer coefficient for the pool boiling of water at 2.1 bar, from a surface at 125   °C. Check that the critical flux is not exceeded.

Solution

Physical properties, from steam tables:

Saturation temperature , T south = 121.viii ° C ρ 50 = 941.6 kg / thou 3 , ρ ν = one.18 kg / g 3 C pL = 4.25 × ten three J / kg ° C k L = 687 × 10 3 Wm ° C μ L = 230 × 10 6 Ns / m 2 λ = 2198 × 10 3 J / kg σ = 55 × 10 3 N / chiliad p w at 125 ° C = 2.321 × 10 5 Northward / thousand two p southward = 2.one × 10 5 N / m 2

Use the Foster-Zuber correlation, equation 12.41:

h nb = 1.22 × 10 3 687 × 10 3 0.79 4.25 × 10 3 0.45 941.6 0.49 55 × 10 three 0.v 230 × 10 6 0.29 2198 × x 3 0.24 1.18 0.24 125 121.eight 0.24 two.321 × x five 2.1 × 10 5 0.75 = 3738 W / g ii ° C

Apply the Zuber correlation, equation 12.43:

q c = i.131 × 2198 × 10 3 55 × x three × nine.81 941.half-dozen 1.18 1 .xviii two ane / iv = ane.48 × 10 6 W / m 2 ¯ ¯

Kenneth C. Mills , ... Takashi Watanabe , in Treatise on Procedure Metallurgy: Process Fundamentals, 2014

2.2.iv.v.3 Measurement Issues

There are two major problems encountered when measuring thermal conductivities of slag films, namely, convection and radiations conduction.

The usual arroyo taken is to make up one's mind a value of the thermal conductivity of the liquid slag costless from convection and to calculate the convective contribution using turbulence models (due east.yard., k-ɛ model). The main difficulty lies in determining the value of the thermal conductivity of liquid slag which is free from convective contributions. This is achieved by using transient methods (i.e., where the measurements are completed before convection has had time to develop, typically effectually 1   s). Steady land methods are unsuitable for these measurements. The two transient techniques in common use are the laser pulse (LP) and the transient hot wire (THW, sometimes referred to as the line source) methods.

Glasses, slags, and fluxes are semitransparent media and thermal electrical conductivity measurements on both solid and liquid slags are known to incorporate contributions from radiation conductivity. It is difficult to determine the magnitude of these k R contributions in the measured thermal conductivity.

The regression of experimental data should be taken into consideration when higher accurateness is needed.
