Temperature expansion-based

The coiTclation of AH° for the ideal gas at low temperature is based on a series expansion in temperature and is expressed as ... 

The Kelvin degree scale was originally introduced by William Thomson. It is a thermodynamic temperature scale based on the second law of thermodynamics and is identical to the absolute temperature scale based on the above volume expansion arguments. Substituting Equation (1.4) into Equation (1.3) gives ... 

A large apphcation of latex is in blends with asphalt to produce a waterproof membrane on cinder block and concrete walls. Here, as well as when incorpevated into concrete mortars, the rubber fraction produces better adhesion, durability, and temperature expansion tolerance than the asphalt or mortar base alone. 

As the driving force for the precipitation in the GAS process is the antisolvent effect caused by the solubilization of CO2 in the liquid phase, and the solvent power of a liquid is often proportional to its density it has been found that it is possible to select the optimum thermodynamic conditions for this process by studying the volumetric expansion in the solvent caused by CO2. De la Fuente et al. presented a definition of the volumetric expansion based on the variation of the partial molar volume of the solvent, which allows an optimum selection of the solvent and the operating pressure and temperature for a particular application. These authors also showed that a study of the solubility of the solute in the solvent-C02 mixtures allows predicting if the GAS process can yield satisfactory results in systems in which there is a sharp decrease in solubility at some concentration of CO2, the performance of the GAS process will be optimum, since in this case, the precipitation will take place very quickly and homogenously upon reaching this region systems that show a slow decrease in solubility as the CO2 amount increases are likely to yield worse results, since in this case, the precipitation will take place continuously and relatively slowly as CO2 is fed to the precipitator. 

While resistant to high temperature, catalysts based on magnesia are sensitive to steaming at low temperatures because of the risk of hydration (refer to Reaction R45 in Table 4.1) The reaction may result in breakdown of the catalyst because it involves an expansion of the molecular volume. The equilibrium constant for the reaction is plotted in Figure 4.1 [381], It is seen that at the pressures typical of tubular reformers, hydration cannot take place at temperatures above approximately 350 C. Kinetic studies of the hydration reaction have shown that magnesia reacts via liquid phase reaction in which water condenses in the pores. Therefore, the rate depends on the relative humidity of the atmosphere, and in practice hydration is a problem only when the magnesia-based catalyst is exposed to liquid water or is operated close to the condensation temperature [381]. Hydration is eliminated for carriers where magnesia has reacted with alumina to form...

All cylinders containing gases in their liquid state are filled based on theirfilling density. The filling density is defined as the maximum weight of the material allowed in the cylinder, as a percentage of that cylinder s water capacity. There is no overfill allowed with liquefied gases since temperature expansion of the liquid could result in catastrophic cylinder failure. 

All tables that involve reduction of gravity to standard temperature are based on the assumption that the measurement has been made by means of a glass hydrometer (Test Method D 287), and that correction for the thermal expansion of standard hydrometer glass has been incorporated. To accommodate the growing use of on-line densitometers, which are not dependent on hydrometer corrections, the computer subroutines optionally allow for the exclusion of the hydrometer correction.
