Force transmission errors in magnetic suspension densimeters

April 2, 2007
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden, R Kleinrahm, W Wagner
We present techniques to determine and compensate for the force transmission error (FTE), including the effects of magnetic fluids, in magnetic suspension densimeters. For a two-sinker densimeter, the forces on the balance are written out for each of the

Thermophysical Properties Measurements and Models for Rocket Propellant RP-1: Phase I

February 1, 2007
Author(s)
Joe W. Magee, Thomas J. Bruno, Daniel G. Friend, Marcia L. Huber, Arno D. Laesecke, Eric Lemmon, Mark O. McLinden, Richard A. Perkins, J?rg Baranski, Jason A. Widegren
Accurate knowledge of thermophysical properties is a prerequisite to design efficient and cost-effective rocket engine systems that use the kerosene rocket propellant designated RP-1. A robust properties model that is based on reliable experimental

The Refprop Database for the Thermophysical Properties of Refrigerants

September 14, 2003
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden, Eric W. Lemmon, Marcia L. Huber
Property databases are widely used for the design and analysis of refrigeration systems. Version 7 of the NIST REFPROP Reference Fluid Thermodynamic and Transport Properties) database is described. Compared with previous versions, the database includes

Method for Estimating Mixture Equation of State Parameters

November 1, 2001
Author(s)
Eric W. Lemmon, Mark O. McLinden
A predictive method for estimating the zij parameter in the mixture model of Lemmon and Jacobsen [Int. J. Thermophysics 20:1629 (1999)] has been developed. Data for 76 binary pairs have been used in the development of this method, and these data are

Thermodynamic Properties for the Alternative Refrigerants

June 1, 1998
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden, Eric W. Lemmon, R. T. Jacobsen
Models commonly used to calculate the thermodynamic properties of refrigerants are summarized. For pure refrigerants, the virial, cubic, Martin-Hou, Benedict-Webb-Rubin, and Helmholtz equations of state and the extended corresponding states model are

Search for Alternative Refrigerants: A Molecular Approach

July 1, 1988
Author(s)
Mark O. McLinden, David Didion
The impending production limitation on the fully halogenated CFC refrigerants is causing an intense search for possible substitutes. This study reviews the historical development of the CFC refrigerants and the relationship between molecular structure and

Experimental Evaluation of Two Refrigerant Mixtures in a Breadboard Air Conditioner

April 1, 1988
Author(s)
W. J. Mulroy, M Kauffeld, Mark O. McLinden, David Didion
An experimental, water-to-water, breadboard heat pump (that is one designed to be easily reconfigured) was constructed for comparison of pure R22 to the refrigerant mixtures R22/R114 and R13/R12. three evaporator configurations were extensively studied. In
