Resumo
The thermal conductivity of n-butane has been measured by a coaxial-cylinder\\nmethod over a pressure range from 0.1 MPa up to 70 MPa and a temperature\\nrange from room temperature to 600 K, covering all fluid states. The estimated\\naccuracy of the method is about 2%. Special emphasis has been given to the\\nbehavior of the thermal conductivity near the critical point, and the critical\\nenhancement has been studied for 3.6 K < AT < 176 K. The effect of inelastic\\ncollisions upon transport properties of the dilute gas has been discussed. The\\nresults obtained for the reduced critical enhancement as a function of the\\nreduced critical temperature confirm the universality of the critical exponent, for\\nthe n-alkanes, whereas the reduced excess thermal conductivity outside the\\ncritical region is a function of the reduced density and of the n-alkane.
