THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF OXYGEN FROM 2000 K TO 5000 K

Tables of thermodynamic properties of oxygen at high temperatures are presented, including effects of dissociation and ionization. The partition functions, first and second temperature derivatives of partition functions, equilibrium constants and temperature derivatives of equilibrium constants are tabulated at intervals of 100 K between 2000 K and 5000 K. The mole fraction composition, temperature and density derivatives of the mole fraction composition, pressure, entropy, enthalpy, specific heats and speed of sound are tabulated at the temperature given above and at densities such that the log of the density (expressed in standard atmospheres) has values of -3.0, -2.0, -1.5, -1.0, -0.8, -0.6, -0.4, -0.2, 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2. All quantities were calculated directly from the formulas of statistical mechanics, using digital computers and employing the most recent spectroscopic data.
