Abstract:

In the present study, in order to predict the activity coefficient of inorganic ions, 12 cases of aqueous chloride solution were considered (AClx=1,2; A=Li, Na, K, Rb, Mg, Ca, Ba, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni). For this study, the UNIQUAC thermodynamic model is desired and its adjustable parameters are optimized with the Genetic + PSO algorithm. The optimization of the UNIQUAC model with PSO+ genetic algorithms has good results. So that the minimum and maximum electrolyte error of the whole system are 0.00044 and 0.0091, respectively. For this study, a temperature of 298.15 and a pressure of 1 is considered. Also, in this study for the electrolyte system, the Artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, and Imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) has been studied. The results showed that the Artificial bee colony algorithm has a lower accuracy than the Genetic+ Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The minimum concentration was 0.1 Molality and the maximum concentration was 3 Molality. Based on the results, the activity coefficient of LiCl, NaCl, KCl, RbCl + H2O, MgCl2, CaCl2, BaCl2, MnCl2, FeCl2, CoCl2 NiCl2 depends on the ionic strength of the electrolyte system.

A Nonextensive Electrolyte UNIQUAC Model for Prediction of Mean Activity Coefficients of Binary Electrolyte Solutions

In this work, an electrolyte-UNIQUAC model was developed by replacement of Boltzmann weight binary interaction parameters by the nonextensive Tsallis weight. A summation of the long-range electrostatic term (Debye-Huckel equation) and a short-range interaction term were considered in the calculation of thermodynamic properties. A framework proposed by Chen and co-workers was employed for the de...

Modeling electrolyte solutions with the extended universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) model*

The extended universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) model is a thermodynamic model for solutions containing electrolytes and nonelectrolytes. The model is a Gibbs excess function consisting of a Debye–Hückel term and a standard UNIQUAC term. The model only requires binary ion-specific interaction parameters. A unique choice of standard states makes the model able to reproduce solid–liquid, vapor–liq...

A modified extended UNIQUAC model for proteins

A modification of the extended UNIQUAC model is proposed for the description of the non-ideality of protein solutions. Here, the Staverman–Guggenheim combinatorial contribution used in extended UNIQUAC model is replaced by the Flory–Huggins term to take into account the size differences between the protein and solvent. This new model allows an excellent description of the activity coefficients ...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
