Properties of Gases

Notes:

The critical temperature is the maximum temperature at which a gas can be liquified. (above this temperature a liquid cannot exist)
The critical pressure is the pressure to liquify the gas at this temperature.
The critical density is the resulting density at these conditions
The viscosity values are in μP to obtain μPa.s = μN.s/m2 divide table values by 10
The properties ** are temperature related..
