ASTM D4362-93(1998)e1

Standard Specification for Propane Thermophysical Property Tables

SCOPE
1.1 The propane thermophysical property tables are for use in the calculation of the pressure-volume-temperature (PVT), thermodynamic, and transport properties of propane for process design and operations. Tables are provided for gaseous and liquid propane at temperatures between 85 and 600 K at pressures to 100 MPa. These tables were developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (formerly the National Bureau of Standards) upon culmination of four years of effort in acquiring available physical properties data, in performing experimental measurements, and in formulating these tables for use in thermal computations.
