The correlation is implemented for temperatures in the range between 205K and  600 K and for pressures less than 130 MPa.   

 

Values of specific enthalpy and entropy are referred to 0 for saturated liquid at the normal boiling point (467.59 K).

 

The viscosity and thermal conductivity for the liquid phase for temperatures between 230 K and 600 K are from;
