Carbon dioxide - Prandtl Number vs. Temperature and Pressure (original) (raw)

The Prandtl Number - Pr - is a dimensionless number approximating the ratio of momentum diffusivity (kinematic viscosity) to thermal diffusivity - and is often used in heat transfer and free and forced convection calculations.

The Prandtl number can for calculations be expressed as

Pr = μ Cp / k (1)

where

μ = absolute or dynamic viscosity (kg/m s, lbm/(ft h))

Cp = specific heat (J/kg K, Btu/lbmoF)

k = thermal conductivity (W/m K, Btu/(h ft2oF/ft))

Below, Prandtl numbers for carbon dioxide at varying temperatures and pressures are given in figures and table.
