The engineering calculation and simulation of absorption refrigeration systems require the availability of simple and efficient functions for the determination of thermodynamic property values of the operating fluid. This work presents a set of five simple and explicit functions for the determination of the vapor - liquid equilibrium properties of the ammonia-water mixture. The functions are co...

systematic studies on the vapor-liquid equilibria (vle) and conductometric properties of aqueous solutions of model surface-active ionic liquid 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([c12mim]br) are performed in the absence and presence of a large series of electrolytes in order to achieve a deeper understanding about the molecular mechanism behind the specific salt effect on the aggregation be...

Hydrogen (H2) is a clean fuel and key enabler of energy transition into green renewable sources method achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. Underground H2 storage (UHS) prominent offering permanent solution for low-carbon economy to meet the global demand. However, UHS complex procedure where containment security, pore-scale scattering, large-scale capacity can be influenced contamination due ...

Continuum Widom-Rowlinson model: In the beginning of seventies, a great progress has already been made in understanding equilibrium phase transitions and critical phenomena in classical (i.e. non-quantum) lattice models, where basic elements are localized on vertices of a regular discrete structure and interact with their nearest neighbors. The lattice gas analogy [1] of Onsager’s exact solutio...

An apparatus has been designed and constructed for the measurement of vapor-liquid equilibrium properties. The main components of the apparatus consist of an equilibrium cell and a vapor circulation pump. The cell and all of the system valves are housed inside a temperature controlled, insulated aluminum block. The temperature range of the apparatus is 260 K to 380 K to pressures of 6 MPa. The ...

The liquid-gas phase transition in finite nuclei is studied in a heated liquid-drop model where the nuclear drop is assumed to be in thermodynamic equilibrium with its own evaporated nucleonic vapor conserving the total baryon number and isospin of the system. It is found that in the liquid-vapor coexistence region the pressure is not a constant on an isotherm indicating that the transition is ...

This paper represents a continuation of the series concerning experimental determination of vapour–liquid equilibria (VLE) in diluted polymer + solvent systems. In the previous papers we dealt with the polymeric flow improvers + toluene, hexane, chloroform1,2, poly(acrylic acid) + water3, poly(methyl methacrylate) + acetone3, and poly(methyl methacrylate) + 2-butanone4 systems. The aim of this ...

the modified nrtl (m-nrtl) model is used to represent the excess gibbs free energy of aqueous (alcohol + electrolyte) solutions. in this work, the m-nrtl model previously developed for representation of vapor-liquid equilibria for (polymer + salt + water) systems has been extended to represent liquid-liquid equilibria of (alcohol + salt + water) systems. the proposed extension is a modified of ...

a numerical framework has been proposed to model the interacting effects of mixture non-ideality and mass transfer on hydrodynamics of a multiphase system using cfd methods.mass transfer during condensation and vaporization is modeled by chemical potential at the liquid-vapor interface. species mass transfers are related to the diffusion at the interface which in turn is related to the concentr...

We have investigated the adsorption and desorption of helium near its liquid-vapor critical point in silica aerogels with porosities between 95% and 98%. We used a capacitive measurement technique which allowed us to probe the helium density inside the aerogel directly, even though the samples were surrounded by bulk helium. The aerogel’s very low thermal conductivity resulted in long equilibra...
