Isobaric heat capacities of carbon dioxide and argon between 323 and 423 K and at pressures up to 25 MPa

Abstract: The isobaric specific heat capacities cp of carbon dioxide and argon have been measured between 323 and 423 K at pressures up to 25 MPa. The present results obtained by means of the experimental technique recently designed for gases1 are compared with literature data and with values calculated from different equations of state.

The selection of international standards for the thermodynamic properties of HFC-134a and HCFC-123

Abstract: The objectives and activities of the International Energy Agency-Annex 18 are summarized. One of the goals of the Annex was to determine the formulations that best represent the thermodynamic properties of HFC-134a and HCFC-123. The formulations selected were those which accurately represented the experimental data and simultaneously exhibited thermodynamic consistency. Methods of comparison include analysis of the experimental data, statistical comparisons of values calculated from the property formulations to experimental values, and graphical analyses of the thermodynamic surface. The analytical methods used are summarized in this paper. The equations of state reviewed in these comparisons represented the most accurate formulations available in December 1992. Four equations of state were reviewed for HFC-I34a and three equations of state were considered for HCFC-123. These equations represented the work of independent researchers in Germany, Japan, and the United States. The formulations selected as international standards are presented.
