Mixture Transport Properties
The transport properties of the mixture are computed using the following for specific heat capacity (SI unit: J/(kg·K))
The thermal conductivity (SI unit: W/(m·K)) is computed using:
In these equations:
•
T is the temperature (SI unit: K)
•
x is the mole fraction
•
M is the molecular weight (SI unit: kg/mol)
•
cp is the heat capacity per unit mass (SI unit: J/(kg·K))
•
Cp represents the heat capacity per mole (SI unit: J/(mol·K)), and
•
k is the thermal conductivity (SI unit: W/(m·K)).
The dynamic viscosity (SI unit: N·s/m2) is computed using:
where
In these equations μ denotes the dynamic viscosity (SI unit: Ns/m2).
