  The status of the literature is reviewed for several thermophysical
properties of pure solid and liquid tungsten which constitute input for the
modelling of intense plasma-surface interaction phenomena that are important
for fusion applications. Reliable experimental data are analyzed for the latent
heat of fusion, the electrical resistivity, the specific isobaric heat
capacity, the thermal conductivity and the mass density from the room
temperature up to the boiling point of tungsten as well as for the surface
tension and the dynamic viscosity across the liquid state. Analytical
expressions of high accuracy are recommended for these thermophysical
properties that involved a minimum degree of extrapolations. In particular,
extrapolations were only required for the surface tension and viscosity.
