XENON

 

Xenon provides high accuracy thermodynamic properties for elemental xenon using the fundamental equation of state developed by O. Sifner and J. Klomfar, "Thermodynamic Properties of Xenon from the Triple Point to 800 K with Pressures up to 350 MPa," J.Phys. Chem. Ref. Data, Vol. 23, No.1, pp. 63-152, (1994).  This correlation is also presented in a more convenient form in the textbook by R.T. Jacobsen, S.G. Penoncello, and E.W. Lemmon, "Thermodynamic Properties of Cryogenic Fluids", Plenum Press, 1997, ISBN 0-306-45522-6.  The thermodynamic property correlations are valid for temperatures between triple point (161.36 K) and 800 K at pressures up to 350 MPa. 

 

The viscosity correlation is from:
