    This document contains a table showing the thermal conductivity values in mW/mK of various concentrations of propylene glycol (75%, 50%, 25%, and 0% = water) over a range of temperatures from 70-190°F. It also includes a ratio of the thermal conductivities of the propylene glycol mixtures compared to water. The reduced thermal conductivity of propylene glycol mixtures compared to water acts to reduce heat transfer by creating a greater temperature difference between the average fluid temperature and the vessel wall.
