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...

Since the 2005 demonstration of optimal topological chaos in a particular instance of the 2-sector RSS model, the delineation of the optimal policy function for “small” discount factors has remained open. This paper (i) provides an explicit solution when the discount factor is less than the labor/capital-output ratio, (ii) establishes the existence of optimal topological chaos for a non-negligi...

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...

based on the carnahan and starling hard sphere equation of compressibility, an equation of state has been derived. conditions that must be met by all equations of state are applied in order to obtain attractive term or non - ideal compressibility term of the equation. second virial coefficient and acentric factor arc used in the derivation of the equation of state. in this equation, compressibi...

Densities, structural effects and viscosities of binary nonelectrolyte systems including nitrobenzene + 2-propanol, 2-butanol and 2-pentanol at temperatures (293.15 to 323.15) K and normal atmospheric pressure were measured using an Anton-Paar SVM 3000 stabinger viscometer. Excess molar volumes  and viscosity deviations Δη were calculated and correlated by the Redlich-Kister equation to estimat...
