    Abstract

    We calculated the thermodynamic quantities of dilute liquid 3He-4He mixtures, starting from experimental values of the specific heat and the osmotic pressure. The calculations are confined to temperatures below 250 mK and 3He concentrations below 8% at zero pressure. Some results are especially useful for dilution refrigeration. Contrary to the calculations previously performed by Radebaugh, our results are in good agreement with the experimental date on both the osmotic pressure and the osmotic enthalpy.
