TL;DR: The available experimental liquid phase thermal conductivity data for benzene have been examined with the intention of establishing a further liquid thermal conductivities standard along the saturation line as mentioned in this paper, and the quality of the available data is such that new standard reference values can be proposed with confidence limits better than ± 1% for most of the normal liquid range.

TL;DR: In this article, thermal conductivity, viscosity, and self-diffusion coefficient data for liquid n-alkanes are satisfactorily correlated by a method based on the hard-sphere theory of transport properties.
Abstract: Thermal conductivity, viscosity, and self-diffusion coefficient data for liquid n-alkanes are satisfactorily correlated simultaneously by a method based on the hard-sphere theory of transport properties. Universal curves are developed for the reduced transport properties λ*, η*, and D* as a function of the reduced volume. A consistent set of equations is derived for the characteristic volume and for the parameters Rλ, Rη, and RD, introduced to account for the nonsphericity and roughness of the molecules. The temperature range of the above scheme extends from 110 to 370 K, and the pressure range up to 650 MPa.

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of binary mixtures of n-hexane with methanol, ethanol, and hexanol was measured using transient hot-wire technique.
Abstract: New absolute measurements, by the transient hot-wire technique, of the thermal conductivity of binary mixtures of n-hexane with methanol, ethanol, and hexanol are presented. The temperature range examined was 295–345 K and the pressure atmospheric. The concentrations studied were 75% by weight of methanol and 25, 50, and 75% by weight of ethanol and hexanol. The overall uncertainty in the reported thermal conductivity data is estimated to be ±0.5%, an estimate confirmed by the measurement of the thermal conductivity of water. A recently extended semiempirical scheme for the prediction of the thermal conductivity of mixtures from the pure components is used to correlate and predict the thermal conductivity of these mixtures, as a function of both composition and temperature.
