Representation and Validation of Liquid Densities for Pure Compounds and Mixtures

August 7, 2015
Author(s)
Vladimir Diky, John P. O'Connell, Jens Abildskov, Kenneth G. Kroenlein, Michael D. Frenkel
Reliable correlation and prediction of liquid densities are important for designing chemical processes at normal and elevated pressures. We have extended a corresponding states model from molecular theory to yield a robust method for quality testing of

The IAPWS Industrial Formulation for the Thermodynamic Properties of Seawater

July 29, 2015
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, H J. Kretzschmar, Rainer Feistel, Wolfgang Wagner, Kiyoshi Miyagawa, J R. Cooper, Michael Hiegemann, Francisco L. Blangetti, Konstantin A. Orlov, I Weber, Anurag Singh, Sebastian Herrmann
In 2008, the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) adopted a standard formulation for the thermodynamic properties of seawater as a sum of contributions to the Gibbs free energy from pure water and from dissolved sea salt

Gas Chromatographic Retention Indices

June 9, 2015
Author(s)
Thomas J. Bruno
The interpretation of results from chromatographic measurements can often be augmented with an appropriate mathematical treatment of the solute retention that is observed. The goal of treatment is to make the resulting metric as independent of the

Measuring collected gas with microwave and acoustic resonances

April 23, 2015
Author(s)
Keith A. Gillis, James W. Schmidt, Michael R. Moldover, James B. Mehl
With calibrations of large flow meters in mind, we established the feasibility of determining the mass M of argon gas contained within a 0.3 m 3 commercially manufactured pressure vessel ("tank") with a relative standard uncertainty of u r(M) = 0.0016 at 0

Speed of sound measurements and a fundamental equation of state for cyclopentane

April 22, 2015
Author(s)
Eric W. Lemmon, Holger Gedanitz, Maria J. Davila
The speed of sound in liquid cyclopentane has been measured in the temperature range from (258 to 353) K at pressures up to 30 MPa (42 data points) using a pulse-echo method with a double path type sensor. The expanded overall uncertainty (k = 2) in the

Data Formats for Elementary Gas Phase Kinetics: Part 3. Reaction Classification

April 20, 2015
Author(s)
Donald R. Burgess Jr., Jeffrey A. Manion, Carrigan J. Hayes
A method denoted InChI ER has been developed to describe and identify elementary reactions in a standard computer-readable notation by extending the IUPAC International Chemical Identifier (InChI) formalism. Five additional hierarchical InChI ER layers

Reference correlations for the viscosity and thermal conductivity of fluids over extended range of conditions: n-hexane in the vapor, liquid, and supercritical regions

March 11, 2015
Author(s)
Richard A. Perkins, Marcia L. Huber, Marc J. Assael, Efthimia K. Mihailidou, Sofia K. Mylona, Evita J. Sykioti
This article summarizes the correlation procedures developed for IUPAC Project 2012-040-1-100 (Reference correlations for the thermal conductivity and viscosity of fluids over extended range of conditions (vapor, liquid and supercritical region)). This

An Equation of State for the Thermodynamic Properties of Cyclohexane

December 5, 2014
Author(s)
Yong Zhou, Jun Liu, Steven Penoncello, Eric Lemmon
In this work, an equation of state for cyclohexane has been developed using the Helmholtz energy as the fundamental property with independent variables of density and temperature. Multi-property fitting technology was used to fit the equation of state that

Reference Correlation of the Thermal Conductivity of o-Xylene, m-Xylene, p-Xylene, and Ethylbenzene from the Triple Point to 700 K and Moderate Pressures

November 21, 2014
Author(s)
Sofia K. Mylona, K.D. Antoniadis, Marc J. Assael, Marcia L. Huber, Richard A. Perkins
This paper contains new, representative reference equations for the thermal conductivity of o-, m-, p- xylene and ethylbenzene. The equations are based upon a body of experimental data that has been critically assessed for internal consistency and for

Preface

November 19, 2014
Author(s)
Daniel G. Friend, Marcia L. Huber, Neil T. Wright
This is a preface for a special issue of the International Journal of Thermophysics that contains papers presented at the 18th Symposium on Thermophysical Properties.

Progress toward new Reference Correlations for the Transport Properties of Carbon Dioxide

September 10, 2014
Author(s)
Allan H. Harvey, Marcia L. Huber, Arno R. Laesecke, Chris D. Muzny, Richard A. Perkins
The thermophysical properties of carbon dioxide are essential for accurate process design and optimization. While the thermodynamic properties of CO2 are available with excellent accuracy from the reference-quality equation of state of Span and Wagner, the

Sealed Gravitational Capillary Viscometers for Volatile Liquids

July 7, 2014
Author(s)
Arno R. Laesecke
The evolution of sealed gravitational capillary viscometers for measurements of volatile liquids is reviewed. Two corrections need to be applied to measurements with them: (i) the vapor buoyancy correction and, if coiled capillaries are used, (ii) the

Viscosity Measurements of DNA Solutions with and without Condensing Agents

July 7, 2014
Author(s)
Arno D. Laesecke, Jessica L. Burger
Aqueous DNA solutions at three concentrations were studied as model sputum by viscosity measurements at ambient pressure. Initial measurements at 25 °C, 37.78 °C, and 50 °C indicated a viscosity increase toward 50 °C. This phenomenon was studied by
