Abstract
This work is part of an international project for the research on the transport properties in ternary mixtures. Six different teams have analysed the same mixture by independent techniques in order to compare the results and validate the techniques. This work is the contribution of the team of Mondragon Unibertsitatea for ground conditions measurements. This team has measured the thermodiffusion coefficients by the thermogravitational techniques and the molecular diffusion coefficients by the Sliding Symmetric Tubes technique. The Soret coefficients have been determined by the combination of the thermodiffusion and molecular diffusion coefficients. The mixture chosen for the study is the one formed by 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphtalene, isobutylbenzene and n-dodecane at mass fraction of 80% of THN, 10% of IBB and 10% of n C12, and at 25°C. The good agreement between the results of the different teams shows the validity of the techniques used in this work.
