Where specialized fluctuation data are not available, estimates of horizontal spreading can be approximated from convential wind direction traces. A method suggested by Smith (2) and Singer and Smith (10) uses classificahon of the wind direction trace to determine the turbulence characteristics of the atmosphere, which are then used to infer the dispersion. Five turbulence classes are determined from inspection of the analog record of wind direction over a period of 1 h. These classes are defined in Table 19-1. The atmosphere is classified as A, B2, Bj, C, or D. At Brookhaven National Laboratory, where the system was devised, the most unstable category. A, occurs infrequently enough that insufficient information is available to estimate its dispersion parameters. For the other four classes, the equations, coefficients, and exponents for the dispersion parameters are given in Table 19-2, where the source to receptor distance x is in meters. 

For the turbulent region, the equation coefficient and the exponent on the length Reynolds number may have to be determined empirically. 

Vapor pressure equation coefficients and second virial coefficient correlations as function of temperature are given in Appendix A. Dimerization and tetramerization constant parameters are given in Table 13.6. 

The proportional relationship between equation coefficients and the number of gaseous molecules is used in stoichiometry problems when converting between volumes of different gases measured at the same temperature and pressures (Section 14.9).

When the pressure is low and mixture conditions are far from critical, activity coefficients are essentially independent of pressure. For such conditions it is common practice to set P = P in Equations (18) and (19). Coupled with the assumption that v = v, substitution gives the familiar equation... 

Chapter 3 discusses calculation of fugacity coefficient < ). Chapter 4 discusses calculation of adjusted activity coefficient Y fugacity of the pure liquid f9 [Equation (24)], and Henry s constant H.

Equations (2) and (3) are physically meaningful only in the temperature range bounded by the triple-point temperature and the critical temperature. Nevertheless, it is often useful to extrapolate these equations either to lower or, more often, to higher temperatures. In this monograph we have extrapolated the function F [Equation (3)] to a reduced temperature of nearly 2. We do not recommend further extrapolation. For highly supercritical components it is better to use the unsymmetric normalization for activity coefficients as indicated in Chapter 2 and as discussed further in a later section of this chapter. 

To illustrate calculations for a binary system containing a supercritical, condensable component. Figure 12 shows isobaric equilibria for ethane-n-heptane. Using the virial equation for vapor-phase fugacity coefficients, and the UNIQUAC equation for liquid-phase activity coefficients, calculated results give an excellent representation of the data of Kay (1938). In this case,the total pressure is not large and therefore, the mixture is at all times remote from critical conditions. For this binary system, the particular method of calculation used here would not be successful at appreciably higher pressures. 

Equilibrium constants,, for all possible dimerization reactions are calculated from the metastable, bound, and chemical contributions to the second virial coefficients, B , as given by Equations (6) and (7). The equilibrium constants, K calculated using Equation (3-15). 

Reference 115 gives the diffusion coefficient of DTAB (dodecyltrimethylammo-nium bromide) as 1.07 x 10" cm /sec. Estimate the micelle radius (use the Einstein equation relating diffusion coefficient and friction factor and the Stokes equation for the friction factor of a sphere) and compare with the value given in the reference. Estimate also the number of monomer units in the micelle. Assume 25°C. 

The coefficients B, C, D, etc for each particular gas are tenned its second, third, fourth, etc. vihal coefficients, and are functions of the temperature only. It can be shown, by statistical mechanics, that 5 is a function of the interaction of an isolated pair of molecules, C is a fiinction of the simultaneous interaction of tln-ee molecules, D, of four molecules, etc., a feature suggested by the fomi of equation (A2.1.54). 

The same result can also be obtained directly from the virial equation of state given above and the low-density fonn of g(r). B2(T) is called the second virial coefficient and the expansion of P in powers of is known as the virial expansion, of which the leading non-ideal temi is deduced above. The higher-order temis in the virial expansion for P and in the density expansion of g(r) can be obtained using the methods of cluster expansion and cumulant expansion. 

A series of studies has been made by Yalkowsky and co-workers. The so-called general solubility equation was used for estimating the solubility of solid nonelectrolytes [17, 18]. The solubility log S (logarithm of solubility expressed as mol/L) was formulated with log P logarithm of octanol/water partition coefficient), and the melting point (MP) as shown in Eq. (11). This equation generally... 

After substitution of the leading terms of the expanded variables into the model equations and equating coefficients of equal powers of e from their sides, they are divided by common factors to obtain the following set ... 

Frontal solution requires very intricate bookkeeping for tracking coefficients and making sure that all of the stiffness equations have been assembled and fully reduced. The process time requirement in frontal solvers is hence larger than a straightforward band solver for equal size problems. 

This means that onee A is known, it ean be multiplied into several b veetors to generate a solution set x = A b for each b vector. It is easier and faster to multiply a matrix into a vector than it is to solve a set of simultaneous equations over and over for the same coefficient matrix but different b vectors. 

The functional form for van der Waals interactions in AMBER is identical with that shown in equation (13) on page 175. The coefficients A. and B.. are computed from the parameters in the file pointed to by the 6-12AtomVDW entry for the parameter set in the Registry or the chem. ini file, usually called nbd.txt(dbf), and optionally with the file pointed to by the 6-12PairVDW entry for the parameter set, usually called npr.txt(dbf). The standard AMBER parameter sets use equations (15) and (16) for the combination rules by setting the 6-12AtomVDWFormat entry to RStarEpsilon. The 1 van der Waals interactions are usually scaled in AMBER to half their nominal value (a scale factor of 0.5 in the Force Field Options dialog box).
