A thermodynamic modeling for the vapor–liquid equilibrium of binary systems of supercritical fluids and ionic liquids is presented. The van der Waals mixing rules and a cubic equation of state are used to evaluate the fugacity coefficient on the systems. Then, a particle swarm algorithm was used to minimize the difference between calculated and experimental bubble pressure, and calculate the in...

We derive an analytical expression of the second virial coefficient of d-dimensional hard sphere fluids confined to slit pores by applying Speedy and Reiss' interpretation of cavity space. We confirm that this coefficient is identical to the one obtained from the Mayer cluster expansion up to second order with respect to fugacity. The key step of both approaches is to evaluate either the surfac...

An analytical equation of state was applied to calculate the thermodynamic properties for argon.The equation of state is that of Song and Mason. It is based on a statistical-mechanical perturbationtheory of the hard convex bodies and can be written as fifth-order polynomial in the density. Thereexist three temperature-dependent parameters: the second virial coefficient, an effective molecularvo...

The knot probability of semiflexible polygons on the cubic lattice is investigated. The degree of stiffness of the polygon is mimicked by introducing a bending fugacity conjugate to the curvature of the polygon. By generalizing Kesten’s pattern theorem to semiflexible walks, we show that for any finite value of the bending fugacity all except exponentially few sufficiently long polygons are kno...

This article contributes to the development of a thermodynamic model for simulating CO2 solubility in pure water and aqueous brines under different conditions temperature, pressure ionic strength. The modeling activity-fugacity (?-?) approach allows calculating solubility, based on Pitzer electrolyte theory activity coefficient Peng-Robinson's equation state fugacity. present work proposes new ...

The eutectic mineral assemblage calcite-dolomitepericlase-apatite-forsterite-magnesioferrite-pyrrhotite-alabandite in a carbonatite dike within the Oka complex, Quebec, buffers the fugacities (and partial pressures) of all gas species in C-O-H-S-F, assuming vapor saturation. At the inferred eutectic (640 ~ C, 1 kbar), the most important gas species and their partial pressures (bars) were: H20, ...

This work introduces an in vivo cancer marker in mice from the altitude of the well, determined by this cancer. The duration of development and the altitude of the cancer well are obtained from the synchronization of the mechanics and the kinetics of the processes of normal and anomalous transport under tumor mass growth. The mechanics and the kinetics of these two transports are found from the...

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...

Recently Duminil-Copin and Smirnov proved a long-standing conjecture of Nienhuis, made in 1982, that the connective constant of self-avoiding walks on the honeycomb lattice is √ 2 + √ 2. A key identity used in that proof was later generalised by Smirnov so as to apply to a general O(n) model with n ∈ [−2,2]. We modify this model by restricting to a half-plane and introducing a fugacity associat...

Parameters governing the rates of mass transfer of the individual components of four synthetic dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) mixtures into the aqueous phase were evaluated. The DNAPL mixtures, composed of toluene and eight polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), were designed to serve as models for coal tars and creosotes. The reactor employed provided a relatively stable interface b...
