Equation of state and thermophysical properties of helium-3.

Author(s) : HUANG Y., CHEN G., ARP V., et al.

Summary

Experimental data for the thermophysical properties of 3He were mined into a searchable database. Equilibrium equations along the vapour-liquid and liquid-solid lines were proposed. A general equation of state for normal fluid 3He based on the Debye specific heat model was developed. Calculations by the Debye fluid 3He state equation differ from the reference experimental data generally within plus or minus 1% for the p-v-T, plus or minus 0.9% for the specific heat and plus or minus 1% for the velocity of sound. A graphical computer program was developed to simplify the calculation of 3He properties over a wide range for temperature from 0.01 to 300 K and pressures up to 15 MPa. 3He T-s and p-h diagrams were plotted.
