Author(s)
Marion Toussaint, Sylvere Krima, Allison Barnard Feeney, HERVE PANETTO
The recent digitization of manufacturing, also referred to as the fourth industrial revolution (or Industry 4.0), heavily relies on information standards for the exchange and integration of digital data across manufacturers and their partners. Standards

Reference Correlation for the Thermal Conductivity of Ethane-1,2-diol (Ethylene Glycol) from the Triple Point to 475 K and Pressures up to 100 MPa

September 14, 2021
Author(s)
Marko Mebelli, Danai Velliadou, Marc Assael, Konstantinos D. Antoniadis, Marcia L. Huber
We present a new wide-ranging correlation for the thermal of ethane-1,2-diol (ethylene glycol) based on critically evaluated experimental data. The correlation is designed to be used with an existing equation of state, and it is valid from the triple point
