Thermodynamic properties computing

Values of 6 for many liquids have been reported, and these have been recorded in extensive Tables [27, 28, 32, 34, 56-59]. The availability of these data provide an easy means of estimating 8. The solubility parameter theory also has serious shortcomings, however, which limits further the reliability of thermodynamic properties computed by the combination of both theories. Nevertheless it does provide useful qualitative, if not quantitative, descriptions of polymer-solvent systems. [Pg.6]

The fluctuations of thermodynamic properties computed from microscopic systems of size N scale as (VA) With N = 10000 particles, the standard deviation of a macroscopic state function is already 1% of the property value. Currently, simulations can be routinely conducted with O(IO ) particles, often reaching O(IO ) particles, decreasing the error to insignificant levels. Consequently, if adequate sampling of the phase space points is numerically generated, the properties can be accurately determined even if the phase space is of a significantly smaller system than a bulk one. [Pg.242]

Two simulation methods—Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics—allow calculation of the density profile and pressure difference of Eq. III-44 across the vapor-liquid interface [64, 65]. In the former method, the initial system consists of N molecules in assumed positions. An intermolecule potential function is chosen, such as the Lennard-Jones potential, and the positions are randomly varied until the energy of the system is at a minimum. The resulting configuration is taken to be the equilibrium one. In the molecular dynamics approach, the N molecules are given initial positions and velocities and the equations of motion are solved to follow the ensuing collisions until the set shows constant time-average thermodynamic properties. Both methods are computer intensive yet widely used. [Pg.63]

What has been developed within the last 20 years is the computation of thermodynamic properties including free energy and entropy [12, 13, 14]. But the ground work for free energy perturbation was done by Valleau and Torrie in 1977 [15], for particle insertion by Widom in 1963 and 1982 [16, 17] and for umbrella sampling by Torrie and Valleau in 1974 and 1977 [18, 19]. These methods were primarily developed for use with Monte Carlo simulations continuous thermodynamic integration in MD was first described in 1986 [20]. [Pg.4]

Monte Carlo simulations are commonly used to compute the average thermodynamic properties of a molecule or a system of molecules, and have been employed extensively in the study of the structure and equilibrium properties of liquids and solutions. Monte Carlo methods have also been used to conduct conformational searches under non-equilibrium conditions. [Pg.95]

Thermodynamic properties such as heats of reaction and heats of formation can be computed mote rehably by ab initio theory than by semiempirical MO methods (55). However, the Hterature of the method appropriate to the study should be carefully checked before a technique is selected. Finally, the role of computer graphics in evaluating quantum mechanical properties should not be overlooked. As seen in Figures 2—6, significant information can be conveyed with stick models or various surfaces with charge properties mapped onto them. Additionally, information about orbitals, such as the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), which ate important sites of reactivity in electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions, can be plotted readily. Figure 7 shows representations of the HOMO and LUMO, respectively, for the antiulcer dmg Zantac. [Pg.163]

Adiabatic flame temperatures agree with values measured by optical techniques, when the combustion is essentially complete and when losses are known to be relatively small. Calculated temperatures and gas compositions are thus extremely useful and essential for assessing the combustion process and predicting the effects of variations in process parameters (4). Advances in computational techniques have made flame temperature and equifibrium gas composition calculations, and the prediction of thermodynamic properties, routine for any fuel-oxidizer system for which the enthalpies and heats of formation are available or can be estimated. [Pg.517]

When the kinetics are unknown, still-useful information can be obtained by finding equilibrium compositions at fixed temperature or adiabatically, or at some specified approach to the adiabatic temperature, say within 25°C (45°F) of it. Such calculations require only an input of the components of the feed and produc ts and their thermodynamic properties, not their stoichiometric relations, and are based on Gibbs energy minimization. Computer programs appear, for instance, in Smith and Missen Chemical Reaction Equilibrium Analysis Theory and Algorithms, Wiley, 1982), but the problem often is laborious enough to warrant use of one of the several available commercial services and their data banks. Several simpler cases with specified stoichiometries are solved by Walas Phase Equilibiia in Chemical Engineering, Butterworths, 1985). [Pg.2077]

Essentially, the RISM and extended RISM theories can provide infonnation equivalent to that obtained from simulation techniques, namely, thermodynamic properties, microscopic liquid structure, and so on. But it is noteworthy that the computational cost is dramatically reduced by this analytical treatment, which can be combined with the computationally expensive ab initio MO theory. Another aspect of such treatment is the transparent logic that enables phenomena to be understood in terms of statistical mechanics. Many applications have been based on the RISM and extended RISM theories [10,11]. [Pg.420]

The thermodynamic properties of thiophene,2-methylthiophene, ° and 3-methylthiophene have been computed from careful measurements of the heat capacity of the solid, liquid, and vapor states, the heat of fusion, the heat of vaporization, and the heat of combustion. From the heat of combustion of thiophene and from thermochemical bond energies, the resonance energy of thiophene has been re-estimated to be only 20 kcal/mole. [Pg.19]

The second method can be applied to mixtures as well as pure components. In this method the procedure is to find the final temperature by trial, assuming a final temperature and checking by entropy balance (correct when ASp t, = 0). As reduced conditions are required for reading the tables or charts of generalized thermodynamic properties, the pseudo critical temperature and pressure are used for the mixture. Entropy is computed by the relation. See reference 61 for details. ... [Pg.390]

There is thus assumed to be a one-to-one correspondence between the most probable distribution and the thermodynamic state. The equilibrium ensemble corresponding to any given thermodynamic state is then used to compute averages over the ensemble of other (not necessarily thermodynamic) properties of the systems represented in the ensemble. The first step in developing this theory is thus a suitable definition of the probability of a distribution in a collection of systems. In classical statistics we are familiar with the fact that the logarithm of the probability of a distribution w[n is — J(n) w n) In w n, and that the classical expression for entropy in the ensemble is20... [Pg.466]

Again, therefore, all thermodynamic properties of a system in quantum statistics can be derived from a knowledge of the partition function, and since this is the trace of an operator, we can choose any convenient representation in which to compute it. The most fruitful application of this method is probably to the theory of imperfect gases, and is well covered in the standard reference works.23... [Pg.472]

The mechanism of radiative transfer in flares was found to depend on compn, flare diameter and pressure (Ref 69). The flare efficiency calcn is complicated by the drop-off in intensity at increasing altitudes and at very large diameters owing to the lower reaction temps (Ref 11, p 13) and the narrowing of the spectral emittance band (Ref 35). The prediction of the light output in terms of compn and pressure (ie, altitude) is now possible using a computer program which computes the equilibrium thermodynamic properties and the luminance (Ref 104) Flare Formulations... [Pg.983]

Chapter 10, the last chapter in this volume, presents the principles and applications of statistical thermodynamics. This chapter, which relates the macroscopic thermodynamic variables to molecular properties, serves as a capstone to the discussion of thermodynamics presented in this volume. It is a most satisfying exercise to calculate the thermodynamic properties of relatively simple gaseous systems where the calculation is often more accurate than the experimental measurement. Useful results can also be obtained for simple atomic solids from the Debye theory. While computer calculations are rapidly approaching the level of sophistication necessary to perform computations of... [Pg.686]

The use of computer simulations to study internal motions and thermodynamic properties is receiving increased attention. One important use of the method is to provide a more fundamental understanding of the molecular information contained in various kinds of experiments on these complex systems. In the first part of this paper we review recent work in our laboratory concerned with the use of computer simulations for the interpretation of experimental probes of molecular structure and dynamics of proteins and nucleic acids. The interplay between computer simulations and three experimental techniques is emphasized (1) nuclear magnetic resonance relaxation spectroscopy, (2) refinement of macro-molecular x-ray structures, and (3) vibrational spectroscopy. The treatment of solvent effects in biopolymer simulations is a difficult problem. It is not possible to study systematically the effect of solvent conditions, e.g. added salt concentration, on biopolymer properties by means of simulations alone. In the last part of the paper we review a more analytical approach we have developed to study polyelectrolyte properties of solvated biopolymers. The results are compared with computer simulations. [Pg.82]

Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations have been extensively applied to molten salts since 1968 to study structure, thermodynamic properties, and dynamic properties from a microscopic viewpoint. Several review papers have been published on computer simulation of molten salts. " Since the Monte Carlo method cannot yield dynamic properties, MD methods have been used to calculate dynamic properties. [Pg.149]
