| Temperature - t - (oC) | Density - ρ - (kg/m3) | Specific Heat - cp - (kJ/kg K) | Thermal Coductivity - λ - (W/m K) | Dynamic Viscosity 10-6 - η - (Pa s) | Prandtl's no. |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| -25 | 738 | 2.064 | 0.144 | 1020 | 14.62 |
| 0 | 719 | 2.131 | 0.137 | 714 | 11.11 |
Octane is a hydrocarbon and an alkane with the chemical formula C8H18, and the condensed structural formula CH3(CH2)6CH3.
- 1 kg/m3 = 0.0624 lb/ft3
- 1 kJ/kgK = 0.2389 Btu/lbmoF
- 1 W/(m K) = 6.935 (Btu in)/(ft² h °F)
- 1 Pa s (N s/m2) = 10 P (Poise) = 103 cP = 0.1020 kp s/m2 = 0.6721 lb/(ft s)
