Equatioa-of-state theories employ characteristic volume, temperature, and pressure parameters that must be derived from volumetric data for the pure components. Owiag to the availabiHty of commercial iastmments for such measurements, there is a growing data source for use ia these theories (9,11,20). Like the simpler Flory-Huggias theory, these theories coataia an iateraction parameter that is the principal factor ia determining phase behavior ia bleads of high molecular weight polymers. 

Other pressure—volume—temperature (PVT) relationships may be found in the Hterature ie, Benedict, Webb, Rubin equations of state (4—7) the Benedict, Webb, Rubin, Starling equation of state (8) the Redlich equation of state (9) and the Redlich-Kwong equation of state (10). 

In the broadest sense, thermodynamics is concerned with mathematical relationships that describe equiUbrium conditions as well as transformations of energy from one form to another. Many chemical properties and parameters of engineering significance have origins in the mathematical expressions of the first and second laws and accompanying definitions. Particularly important are those fundamental equations which connect thermodynamic state functions to real-world, measurable properties such as pressure, volume, temperature, and heat capacity (1 3) (see also Thermodynamic properties). 

Equations of State. Equations of state having adjustable parameters are often used to model the pressure—volume—temperature (PVT) behavior of pure fluids and mixtures (1,2). Equations that are cubic in specific volume, such as a van der Waals equation having two adjustable parameters, are the mathematically simplest forms capable of representing the two real volume roots associated with phase equiUbrium, or the three roots (vapor, Hquid, sohd) characteristic of the triple point. 

Cluusius-Clupeyron Eijliation. Derived from equation 1, the Clapeyron equation is a fundamental relationship between the latent heat accompanying a phase change and pressure—volume—temperature (PVT data for the system (1) ... 

Eijliations of State. An equation of state can be an exceptional tool for property prediction and phase equihbrium modeling. The term equation of state refers to the equihbrium relation among pressure, volume, temperature, and composition of a substance (2). This substance can be a pure chemical or a uniform mixture of chemicals in gaseous or Hquid form. 

Vugacity Coefficients. An exact equation that is widely used for the calculation of fugacity coefficients and fugacities from experimental pressure—volume—temperature (PVT) data is... 

The idea of using reduced variables to correlate the pressure—volume—temperature properties of gases, was suggested by van der Waals in 1873. The...

A secondary fan draws the air and forces it through the secondary heat exchanger, where the reduced air volume temperature is raised to the required desorption temperature. The preheated air is then used to desorb the air in one portion of the wheel. As the air exits the desorption section the organic concentration is approximately 10 times the concentration of the original process stream. This low volume, higher concentration stream then enters the induced draft section of a catalytic or thermal recuperative oxidizer, where the organics are destroyed. 

E, F, r, and N refer to the energy, volume, temperature, and number of particles in a phase, respectively, while the superscripts identify the phases. A refers to the changes as a result of the change in volume A F. 

Relation of gas volume (V) to number of moles (n) and temperature (7) at constant pressure (/ ). The volume of a gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to (a) the number of moles of gas and (b) the absolute temperature. The volume-temperature plot must be extrapolated to reach zero because most gases liquefy at low temperatures well above 0 K.

The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, is an equation of state that summarizes the relations describing the response of an ideal gas to changes in pressure, volume, temperature, and amount of molecules it is an example of a limiting law.
