ThermalSS316Properties

Stainless steel 316 thermal properties.

Description

This userobject provides thermal properties for stainless steel 316 as a function of temperature using curve fits of data in Mills (2002).

All units are given in SI, such that the input temperature is Kelvin, and the output units of the thermal conductivity kk are W/m\cdotK, the output units of the isobaric specific heat capacity CpC_p are J/kg\cdotK, and the output units of the density ρ\rho are kg/m3^3.

Thermal conductivity is given as

k=7.301×106T2+0.02716T+6.308k=-7.301\times 10^{-6}T^2+0.02716T+6.308

Uncertainty on the original tabulated data for thermal conductivity is ±\pm 10%, and the R2R^2 value of the curve fit is 0.9960.

Isobaric specific heat capacity is given as

Cp=0.1816T+428.46C_p=0.1816T+428.46

Uncertainty on the original tabulated data for isobaric specific heat capacity is ±\pm 5%, and the R2R^2 value of the curve fit is 0.9926.

Density is given as

ρ=4.454×105T20.4297T+8089.4\rho=-4.454\times 10^{-5}T^2-0.4297T+8089.4

Uncertainty on the original tabulated data for density is ±\pm 3%, and the R2R^2 value of the curve fit is 0.9995.

Range of Validity

The properties are valid for 25°\degreeC \le T \le 1300°\degreeC.
