Abstract
The thermal conductivity of liquids and their mixtures is an important transport property required in the design and analysis of various heat transfer processes and is also interested in the clarification of the internal structures of liquids. Further, the requirements of accurate thermal conductivity data are recently increased with the development of technology. This paper reviews first the past investigations concerning with the measurement and prediction of thermal conductivity of liquid organic compounds. Further, our thermal conductivity data of hydrocarbons, alcohols and their mixtures are presented. Using the experimental results obtained, the predictive method is described briefly to present the thermal conductivities of pure liquids and their mixtures on the basis of the hole theory concept and the lattice model.
