Abstract

We report experimental measurements of the critical thermal-conductivity enhancement along the critical isochore for a number of fluids. The data are analyzed in terms of a corresponding-states treatment which can be used as a predictive method to calculate the thermal-conductivity enhancement along the critical isochore for any fluid. The quantities which are needed are the coordinates of the critical point, the slope of the critical isochore, and the viscosity along the critical isochore.
