gasoline vapor properties

[mielke]

I am having a very difficult time finding properties for gasoline vapor. Specifically the viscosity, thermal conductivity, and specific heat. Does anyone know a good reference for these values or at least know how each compare to air (ie higher/lower values).

A suggestion is to find a copy of the engineering data book of the GPSA(Gas Processors Suppliers Association.

since gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons with boiling points from 80F to 300F, there is a range. To make it simple, just use properties of say heptane.

What is the situation? Are you sure this is essentially pure gasoline vapor? The vapor above liquid gasoline in an atmospheric storage will have a significant amount of air also. The ration of air / gasoline vapor depends on the vapor pressure of the gasoline which is also dependent on temperature.

My atmospheric storage might contain some nitrogen.
