THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF AIR: TABLES AND GRAPHS DERIVED FROM THE BEATTIE-BRIDGEMAN EQUATION OF STATE ASSUMING VARIABLE SPECIFIC HEATS
The Beattle-Bridgeman equation of state was used to calculate several of the thermodynamic properties and fiow process correction factors for air. The increase in the specific heats due to the vibration of diatomic molecules was included by assuming the molecules to be perfect harmonic oscillators. This report contains the equations used and the tabulated results of thesc calculations. Graphs are included to provide a general picture of the effects of temperature and pressure on the tabulated quantities. In order to illustrate the use of the tables, the calculation procedures and the results of several calculatlons are included. These procedures and results are for isentropic expansions and flow through normal shock waves. (auth)
