In this work, five different thermodynamic models for correlating the fugacity of water and Tetrahydrofuran (THF) in liquid phase in equilibrium with hydrogen hydrate phase, based on the van der Waals–Platteeuw (vdW-P) statistical thermodynamic model are used and the equilibrium pressures of hydrogen hydrate at different temperatures are calculated. The dissociation pressure of binary hydrogen ...

The quest for the nuclear equation of state (EoS) at high densities and/or extreme isospin is one of the longstanding problems of nuclear physics. Ab initio calculations for the nuclear many-body problem make predictions for the density and isospin dependence of the EoS far away from the saturation point of nuclear matter. On the other hand, in recent years substantial progress has been mode to...

Properties of effective interactions in neutron-rich matter are reflected in the medium’s equation of state (EOS), which is a relationship among several state variables. Spin and isospin asymmetries play an important role in the energy balance and could alter the stability conditions of the nuclear EOS. The EOS has far-reaching consequences for numerous nuclear processes in both the terrestrial...

In this work we extend the crossover (CR) modification of the statistical-associating-fluid-theory (SAFT) equation of state (EOS), recently developed and applied for non-associating systems [Ind. Eng. Chem. Res. 38 (1999) 4993] to associating fluids. Unlike the previous crossover EOS that was based on the parametric linear model for the universal crossover function Y, the new CR SAFT EOS is bas...

We calculate static properties of non-rotating neutron stars (NS’s) using a microscopic equation of state (EOS) for asymmetric nuclear matter. The EOS is computed in the framework of the Brueckner–Bethe–Goldstone many–body theory. We introduce three-body forces in order to reproduce the correct saturation point of nuclear matter. A microscopic well behaved EOS is derived. We obtain a maximum ma...

This paper attempts to develop kinetic flux vector splitting (KFVS) for the Euler equations with general pressure laws. It is well known that the gas distribution function for the local equilibrium state plays an important role in the construction of the gas–kinetic schemes. To recover the Euler equations with a general equation of state (EOS), a new local equilibrium distribution is introduced...

The knowledge of biodiesel density over large ranges of temperature and pressure is important for predicting the behavior of fuel injection and combustion systems in diesel engines, and for the optimization of such systems. In this study, cottonseed oil was transesterified into biodiesel and its density was measured at temperatures between 288 K and 358 K and pressures between 0.1 MPa and 30 MP...

Inversions to determine the squared isothermal sound speed anddensitywithin theSunoften use the heliumabundance Y as the second parameter. This requires the explicit use of the equation of state (EOS), thus potentially leading to systematic errors in the results if the equations of state of the reference model and the Sun are not the same. We demonstrate how this potential error can be suppress...

A robust AUSM upwind discretisation scheme has been developed to simulate multiphase flow using consistent spatial discretisation schemes and a modified low-Mach number diffusion term. The impact of the selection of an interfacial pressure model has also been investigated. Three representative test cases have been simulated to evaluate the accuracy of the commonly-used stiffenedgas equation of ...
