A new Corresponding States model for the estimation of thermophysical properties of long chain n-alkanes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interest in phase equilibrium and thermophysical properties of mixtures containing long chain hydrocarbons is increasing. Despite the industrial interest of these systems, the available experimental data are scarce, while new models are required. Corresponding States Theory has been used with success for the estimation of properties of pure components and mixtures of small molecules. This work shows how this theory can be extended to the evaluation of liquid density, vapour pressure and viscosity of long chain molecules in a broad temperature range, based on information of lower members of the same homologous series. Results for the n-alkane series showed that this new model is able to predict liquid density, vapour pressure and viscosity with percent average absolute deviations of 0.44, 0.52, and 3.15%, respectively. © 2003 Elsevier B.V.

Corresponding-States Modeling of the Speed of Sound of Long-Chain Hydrocarbons1
Models based on the corresponding-states principle have been extensively used for several equilibrium and transport properties of different pure and mixed fluids. Some limitations, however, have been encountered with regard to its application to long chain or polar molecules. Following previous studies, where it was shown that the corresponding-states principle could be used to predict thermoph...
متن کاملA Self-Consistent Technique for the Construction and Evaluation of the Three-Parameter Corresponding States Principles
A self-consistent approach for the evaluation of the existing three-parameter corresponding states principles of non-polar fluids and the calculation of the corresponding states parameters is presented. This self consistent approach is based upon the assumption that the contribution of the third parameter to the thermophysical properties is much smaller than the contributions of the first two p...
متن کاملExtension of Linear Isotherm Regularity to Long Chain Alkanes
In this work, we consider each normal alkane as a hypothetical mixtureof methyland methylene groups, in which the interaction potential of each pair is assumed to be the average effective pair potential. Then, the LIR equation of state (EOS) is extended for such a hypothetical mixture. Also, three basic compounds, namely, propane, n-butane and cyclohexane, are used to obtain the contributio...

In this work, a new mathematical model of thermoelasticity theory has been considered in the context of a new consideration of heat conduction with fractional order theory. A functionally graded isotropic unbounded medium is considered subjected to a periodically varying heat source in the context of space-time non-local generalization of three-phase-lag thermoelastic model and Green-Naghdi mod...
متن کاملSupply Chain Cost Estimation Model for Dashboard Management Design
Supply chain management helps partners in the chain to justify internal costs. The pursuit of cost information through the supply chain is very important for controlling costs, which helps to establish and optimize activities in institutions in the value chain. In this research, we have tried to review the literature on Supply Chain Costing in order to predict a model of management dashboard de...
