Abstract

Data on thermodynamic properties, viscosity and thermal conductivity of air and its main components — nitrogen, oxygen and argon — are necessary for development of cryogenic and cosmic technique, chemical and gas industry, energetics and some other branches of technique. After obtaining corresponding experimental data many authors compiled tables of properties and diagrams of state on their basis. In present paper the mean stages of elaboration of reference data on thermophysical properties of air and its components and the most known tables of properties covering wide range of parameters are considered. Databanks and automated information systems are described, which provide users of data on properties of substances.
