in this work, a more accurate prediction of liquid evaporation flux has been achieved. the statistical rate theory approach, which is recently introduced by ward and fang and exact estimation of vapor pressure in the layer adjacent to the liquid–vapor interface have  been used for prediction of this flux. firstly, the existence of an equilibrium layer adjacent to the liquid-vapor interface is c...

in this paper, the vapor-liquid equilibrium (vle) properties of polar and nonpolar fluids are modeled by the use of a statistically-based equation of state (eos). the equation of state used in this work is that of ihm-song-mason (ism) eos. an alternative approach is to revise the isothermal integration on liquid. in this respect, a temperature-dependent revision factor b (t) is introduced to th...

Accurate vapor-liquid equilibrium data have been obtained for ethyl acetate + 2-propanol and ethyl acetate + ethanol mixtures at 84.8 kPa, and the results are discussed thermodynamically. The vapor-liquid equilibrium data are correlated with redlich-Kister, Margules, Van-Laar and Ortega, equations the parameters and standard deviation of which are calculated and reported. The best correlati...

Background The volatility of a compound is its ability to change into a vapor, or to evaporate at a particular temperature and pressure. The normal boiling point of a liquid usually allows comparison of its volatility to other materials, with lower boiling points indicating greater volatility, but this may be affected somewhat by the presence of other materials. Comparison of the concentration ...

Vapor-liquid equilibrium relationships are important properties for practical use, such as in the design and operation of distillation equipment. In general, vapor-liquid equilibrium relations are determined experimentally, and it is a custom to test the thermodynamic consistency of the equilibrium data. Investigators1^4-15'17'19~22-24) have proposed various methods for testing thermodynamic co...

We numerically investigate the nonlinear evolution of the interface of a thin liquid-vapor bilayer system confined by rigid horizontal walls from both below and above. The lateral variation of the vapor pressure arising from phase change is taken into account in the present analysis. When the liquid vapor is heated cooled and gravity acts toward the liquid, the deflection of the interface monot...

An apparatus is described that is capable of determining high-pressure vapor-liquid equilibrium, liquid-liquid equilibrium, solid-liquid-vapor equilibrium, vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium, and mixture critical points and transitions. The device is capable of temperatures to 150 degrees C and pressures to 300 bars (higher with slight modifications). The construction and operation are described i...
