Abstract
The available experimental liquid-phase thermal conductivity data for water, toluene, and n-heptane have been examined with the intention of establishing standard reference values along the saturation line. The quality of available data is such that for toluene and water new standard reference values can be proposed with confidence limits better than ±1.0% for most of the normal liquid range. For n-heptane there are insufficient reliable experimental data for the system to be treated as a primary reference standard, so a lower quality correlation has been developed which yields a set of secondary reference data with confidence limits of ±1.5% for most of the normal liquid range.
