We evaluate the virial coefficients Bk for k ≤ 10 for hard spheres in dimensions D = 2, · · · , 8. Virial coefficients with k even are found to be negative when D ≥ 5. This provides strong evidence that the leading singularity for the virial series lies away from the positive real axis when D ≥ 5. Further analysis provides evidence that negative virial coefficients will be seen for some k > 10 ...

The virial coefficients can be obtained from statistical mechanics in connection with the intermolecular potentials. The intermolecular potential of polyatomic molecules is usually assumed to consist of a spherically symmetric component plus a contribution due to asphericaity of the molecular charge distribution. In this study, the second virial coefficients have been calculated for N2...

in this work an analytical equation of state has been employed to calculate the pvt properties ofternary refrigerant mixtures. the theoretical eos is that of ihm, song and mason, which is based onstatistical-mechanical perturbation theory, and the two constants are enthalpy of vaporization δhvapand molar density ρnb, both at the normal boiling temperature. the following three temperaturedepende...

The second virial coefficients are given as a spherical-core contribution plus a series of nonspherical perturbation terms. A revised analysis is given of the effect of long-range nonspherical terms in the intermolecular potential on the second virial coefficient given by a preferred HFDIDl spherical core treatment of the integration for small intermolecular distances. This effect is consid...

We report the results from Mayer-sampling Monte Carlo calculations of the virial coefficients of the united-atom TraPPE-UA model of normal alkanes. For alkane chain lengths from n=2 to 20 (where n is the number of carbon atoms), results are given for the virial coefficients B(2), B(3), and B(4); results for B(5) are given for chains up to length n=12; and results for B(6) are given for chains o...
