Summary

The speed of sound of gaseous difluoromethane (HFC-32) was measured for temperatures 273.15 to 333.15 K and pressures from 48 to 390 kilopascals with a cylindrical, variable-path acoustic interferometer operating at 156.252 kilohertz. The uncertainty of the speed of sound was less than more or less 0.1%. The ideal-gas heat capacity at constant pressure and the second acoustic virial coefficients were determined over the temperature range from the speed of sound measurements. The ideal-gas heat capacity at constant pressure results and second virial coefficients calculated from these speed of sound measurements were compared with results from the literature determined from PVT measurements and from speed of sound measurements. The uncertainty of the ideal-gas heat capacity at constant pressure was estimated to be less than more or less 1%.
