We compiled an experimental database for the surface tension of binary mixtures containing a wide variety of fluids, from the chemical classes (water, alcohols, amines, ketones, linear and branched alkanes, naphthenes, aromatics, refrigerants, and cryogens). The resulting data set includes 65 pure fluids and 154 binary pairs with a total of 8205 po...

R-1132a is increasingly being considered as a low global warming potential component in alternative mixtures to R-23 in specialized low temperature and ultra-low temperature refrigeration systems. Though the thermodynamic properties of R-1132a were investigated in several studies up to 2018, reinvestigations have been carried out in recent years. I...

In this study, we present a novel method to detect airborne particulates using air-coupled photoacoustics, with a goal toward detecting viral content in respiratory droplets. The peak photoacoustic frequency emitted from micrometer-sized particulates is over 1000 MHz, but at this frequency, the signals are highly attenuated in air. Measurements wer...

We provide detailed background, theoretical and practical, on the specific heat of minerals and mixtures thereof, 'astro-materials,' as well as background information on common minerals and other relevant solid substances found on the surfaces of solar system bodies. Furthermore, we demonstrate how to use specific heat and composition data for luna...

In this work, the transient responses of a heated infrared (IR) temperature sensor were investigated to improve the reliability of determined target temperatures obtained from IR-based medical thermometers. A medical-grade IR temperature sensor was heated at the lower edge of the sidewall of the sensor. To reduce the uncertainty due to the conversi...

Fick diffusion and thermodiffusion coefficients of multicomponent mixtures are known to depend on the frame of reference adopted for the mass fluxes. This paper further elucidates a recent proposal on how to define mass- and thermodiffusion coefficients that are independent of the frame of reference. The primary purpose of the paper is to emphasize...

The current state of the art for temperature realization and dissemination above 1300 K is through the MeP-K-19 [1]. A limited set of high-temperature fixed points (HTFPs), an essential component of the MeP-K-19, has their temperature determined (Co–C (1597 K), Pt–C (1011 K) and Re–C (2747 K)). It is really a need to increase the HTFPs available fo...

Small-volume, high-throughput screening techniques are sought to enable downselection from a large candidate pool of bio-blendstocks to a select few, having physical properties consistent with requirements of downsized, turbo-boosted internal combustion engines. This work presents a droplet evaporation-based approach to predict heat of vaporization...

In this paper, analytical equation for predicting molar entropy of gaseous substances is presented. The average absolute deviation from experimental data (AAD) is employed as accuracy indicator. The model is used to fit experimental data of four diatomic molecules: ICl (X 1Σg+), BBr (X 1Σ+), NaH (X 1Σ+), and LiH (X 1Σ+). The AADs obtained for the d...
