Appendix Database

A.1. Introduction

This appendix presents the first set of physical data collected as encountered in the different chapters of this volume. It sows the seeds upon which will be constructed a global database, which will assemble information that is most commonly needed in calculations related to energy and mass transfers; namely viscosity, heat conductivity, diffusion coefficients, heat transfer coefficients and properties of molten salts, etc.

It should nevertheless be noted that this database is built up progressively; each volume in the series contributing to its development by feeding into it the parameters encountered.

As such, this volume includes the basic parameters involved in thermal and mass exchanges: collision diameters and interaction energies, viscosities, densities, heat capacities and thermal conductivities.

This appendix also includes unit conversion tables, which are extremely useful when dealing with different unit systems.

It should be specified that, for all of the data presented in this appendix, if the information given here is not sufficient, the user is advised to refer to the physical data sources presented in the bibliography section of this book.

Moreover, where the sought data involves materials or components that are not sufficiently commonplace, in such a way that the corresponding data are not in the sources indicated, the values of the physical properties may be estimated from the methods and correlations presented in Volume ...
