<p>Heat transfer fluids which can be used over a broad range of temperatures such as from 175 DEG C to -145 DEG C are disclosed. The heat transfer fluids consist essentially of a mixture of at least two structurally non-identical cycloalkane-alkyl or-polyalkyl compounds, or a mixture of at least two structurally non-identical aliphatic hydrocarbons, or a mixture of a cycloalkane-alkyl or -polyalkyl compound and an aliphatic hydrocarbon. The individual components are present at levels such as to confer to the fluid composition a cloud point below - 100 DEG C, a vapor pressure at +175 DEG C below 1300 kPa, and a viscosity, measured at the cloud point temperature +10 DEG C, below 400 cP.</p> |
