Specific Heat of Solid Methane?

Philip Mulholland @Philip-Mulholland

27 February 2021 1 9K Report

I am researching the atmospheric dynamics of Titan, the giant moon of the planet Saturn.

I have established the presence of solid methane in the bulk of the moon’s atmosphere.

Does anyone have any data on the specific heat of solid methane ice at a temperature of 90 Kelvin and below?

Jérôme Lasne

Dear Philip,

Values of the specific heat of solid methane have been calculated between 40 and 90 K:

Article LOW-TEMPERATURE EQUATION OF STATE OF SOLID METHANE:

Hope it helps!

Best wishes
