in this work, we consider each normal alkane as a hypothetical mixtureof methyland methylene groups, in which the interaction potential of each pair is assumed to be the average effective pair potential. then, the lir equation of state (eos) is extended for such a hypothetical mixture. also, three basic compounds, namely, propane, n-butane and cyclohexane, are used to obtain the contribution of...

in this paper the density and temperature dependencies of surface tension are investigated. using the lennard-jones (12,6), as an effective pair interaction potential, a linear expression is derived for isotherms of g /r2  versus r2 for some normal and chlorofluorocarbons (cfcs) fluids, where  is surface tension and r = 1/v is molar density. the linearity behavior of the derived equation is wel...

In a four dimensional theory of gravity with lagrangian quadratic in curvature and torsion, we compute the effective action for metrics of the form gμν = ρ δμν , with ρ constant. Using standard field-theoretic methods we find that one loop quantum effects produce a nontrivial effective potential for ρ. We explain this unexpected result by showing how our regularization procedure differs from th...

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...
