Application

  • Scaling On Transport Properties of Nanofluids for Heat Transfer Applications: Discusses the use of n-tetradecane in nanofluids for heat transfer applications, validated by experimental data (Prado et al., 2024).
  • Improvement in the freeze-thaw resistance performance of concretes: Studies the encapsulation of n-tetradecane in a composite phase change material for enhancing the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete (Li et al., 2024).
  • Density and speed of sound of liquid mixtures: Provides measurements of density and sound speed in mixtures including n-tetradecane, with implications for thermodynamic modeling (Hevia et al., 2024).
  • Thermal volume expansion: Examines thermal volume changes in n-tetradecane using multiple measurement techniques, enhancing understanding of material properties under temperature changes (Klingler et al., 2024).
  • High-Pressure Phase Behavior of Binary Systems: Investigates the phase behavior of n-tetradecane mixtures under high pressure, relevant for process engineering and materials science (Du Plessis et al., 2024).
