Equation of state

Leachman, J.W., Jacobsen, R.T, Penoncello, S.G., and Lemmon, E.W., "Fundamental Equations of State for Parahydrogen, Normal Hydrogen, and Orthohydrogen," J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data, 38(3):721-748, 2009.

The uncertainty in density is 0.1% at temperatures from the triple point to 250 K and at pressures up to 40 MPa, except in the critical region, where an uncertainty of 0.2% in pressure is generally attained. In the region between 250 and 450 K and at pressures to 300 MPa, the uncertainty in density is 0.04%. At temperatures between 450 and 1000 K, the uncertainty in density increases to 1%. At pressures between 300 and 2000 MPa, the uncertainty in density is 8%. Speed of sound data are represented within 0.5% below 100 MPa. The estimated uncertainty for heat capacities is 1.0%. The estimated uncertainties of vapor pressures and saturated liquid densities calculated with the Maxwell criterion are 0.2% for each property.

Viscosity

Muzny, C.D., Huber, M.L., and Kazakov, A.F., "Correlation for the Viscosity of Normal Hydrogen Obtained from Symbolic Regression," J. Chem. Eng. Data, 58:969-979, 2013.

The estimated uncertainty is 4% for the saturated liquid from the triple point to 31 K, with larger deviations as the critical region is approached. The estimated uncertainty is 4% for the supercritical fluid phase at pressures to 200 MPa. For the limited range of 200 K to 400 K at pressures up to 0.1 MPa, the uncertainty is 0.1%.

Thermal conductivity

Assael, M.J., Assael, J.-A.M., Huber, M.L., Perkins, R.A., and Takata, Y., "Correlation of the Thermal Conductivity of Normal and Parahydrogen from the Triple Point to 1000 K and up to 100 MPa," J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data, 40(3), 033101, 2011.

The estimated uncertainty is less than 4% from 100 K to 1000 K at pressures to 100 MPa. For temperatures from the triple point to 100 K, at pressures to 12 MPa, we estimate the uncertainty to be 7%, except near the critical point. The model behaves in a physically reasonable manner for extrapolations to pressures above 12 MPa at temperatures below 100 K, but will be subject to larger uncertainties.
