using the lennard-jones (12-6) potential, a new equation of state is obtained that can predict properties of both gases and liquids relatively well. this equation of state is given as (z-a)v2=(a/v2)-b, where z is the compressibility factor, a and b are constants, and a is an adjustable parameter that depends on the temperature, volume and the nature of the fluid, and its expressions depends upo...

the present work is the successful extension of an improved equation of state (eos) to refrigerant fluids. the objective is the prediction of isothermal and saturated liquid densities of refrigerants. two temperature-independent parameters appearing in the modified eos are closely related to critical point properties of refrigerant fluids. our results showed that, the proposed eos can predict w...

a modification of peng-robinson equation is described wherein in the parameter b is expressed as a linear function of temperature. the modified equation is then applied to a series of light hydrocarbons and refrigerants, and predicted values for vapor pressure, saturated vapor volume, saturated liquid volume and the heat of evaporation are compared with the corresponding experimental data. cons...

an analytical equation of state (eos) developed by ihm-song-mason (ism) has been applied tocalculate some thermophysical properties of molten polymers including poly (1-octene) (po), poly (vinylmethyl ether) (pvme), poly (vinyl chloride) (pvc), and poly (styrene) (ps). three temperature-dependentparameters of the ism eos have been determined based on the alternative scaling constants, dispersiv...

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...

in the present work, we have obtained the equation of state for neutron star matter considering the in uence of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic spin state. we have also investigated the structure of neutron stars. according to our results, the spin asymmetry stiens the equation of state and leads to high mass for the neutron star.

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...
