Helmholtz free energy conformal solutions

The extension of the isotropic mixture conformal solution method of Smith (4) to the case of anisotropic molecular systems can be made easily in the following manner. The quantities aijy biiy and Cy are defined by the relations an = 8ykeylcrym. fcy = 8y%Vyr, c j = 8y%vconfigurational Helmholtz free energy A for an anisotropic mixture then can be expanded about the configurational Helmholtz free energy of a hypothetical pure reference fluid, Ax, with characterization parameters BXy eXy and ax (or ax, bXy cx)y... 

The study presented herein has a number of implications. First, this study implies that it is possible to obtain accurate predictions of the thermodynamic behavior of mixtures within a multiparameter, corresponding-states framework using empirically determined exponents for the characterization parameters of the reference system in a first-order truncation of the conformal solution method expression for the Helmholtz free energy. This result is important to the continuing effort to develop a highly accurate multiparameter, corresponding-states framework for correlation of fluid properties, and to the industrial use of such a correlation. Second, this study demonstrates that there is a need to study separately rather than collectively (as herein) the errors introduced by the various major approximations introduced into the correlation meth-... 

We are interested in calculating the Helmholtz free energy of the solute molecule in various conformations. The free energy, Ftotai, is divided into intramolecular interactions, i soiute and intermolecular interactions, Fsoiution... 

In this section we consider differences in Helmholtz free energy of solvation arising from different conformations of solute molecules in given solvents, following the approach developed by Sinanoglu [2]. This limited scope of research permits us to ignore various unknown quantities, e.g., the free volume [32-34], which appear in Sinanoglu s treatment.
