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...

Through this study, the ability of a modified Peng-Robinson (MPR) equation of state in predicting the surface tension of n-alkanes based on the density functional theory approach was investigated and compared with other studies. The interfacial layer thickness and the density profile were calculated simultaneously at different temperatures from triple point to near critical point using the modi...

an extended peng-robinson equation of state (epr-eos) is used to model the vapor-liquid equilibrium (vle) in systems containing (water + nacl + co2), (water + methanol + nacl + co2), (water + na2so4 + co2) and (water + nh4cl + co2). the binary and ternary interaction parameters between salt and solvent are adjusted to experimental mean solvent activity of salts (nacl and na2so4). for the system...

Modeling of the relationship between the pressure and yield of biomaterials is an essential issue in supercritical fluid extraction. In this paper, neural networks are proposed for modeling of supercritical fluid extraction. First a three-layer neural network with a fast learning algorithm is used, and its performance is compared to a conventional model of the Peng-Robinson equation of state. A...

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 ...
