This book considers various methods of experimental study of thermal and caloric properties of pure substances and binary mixtures in wide ranges of the variation of independent variables, including the near critical region. Containing over 100 tables and figures, and exhaustively researched (over 500 references are listed), this monograph is addressed to both theorists and experimenters working in the fields of molecular physics, chemical technology, and power engineering, as well as researchers, lecturers, postgraduates, and students.

This book is concerned with the prediction of thermodynamic and transport properties of gases and liquids. The prediction of such properties is essential for the solution of many problems encountered in chemical and process engineering as well as in other areas of science and technology. The book aims to present the best of those modern methods which are capable of practical application. It begins with basic scientific principles and formal results which are subsequently developed into practical methods of prediction. Numerous examples, supported by a suite of computer programmes, illustrate applications of the methods. The book is aimed primarily at the student market (for both undergraduate and taught postgraduate courses) but it will also be useful for those engaged in research and for chemical and process engineering professionals.

Published under the asspices of both IUPAC and its affiliated body, the International Association of Chemical Thermodynamics (IACT), this book will serve as a guide to scientists or technicians who use equations of state for fluids. Concentrating on the application of theory, the practical use of each type of equation is discussed and the strengths and weaknesses of each are addressed. It includes material on the equations of state for chemically reacting and non-equilibrium fluids which have undergone significant developments and brings up to date the equations of state for fluids and fluid mixtures. Applied Thermodynamics of Fluids addresses the need of practitioners within academia, government and industry by assembling an international team of distinguished experts to provide each chapter. The topics presented in the book are important to the energy business, particularly the hydroncarbon economy and the development of new power sources and are also significant for the application of liquid crystals and ionic liquids to commericial products. This reference will be useful for post graduate researchers in the fields of chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemistry and physics.

Perturbation theory forms an important basis for predicting the thermodynamic characteristics of real fluids and solids. This book provides a comprehensive review of current perturbation theories-as well as integral equation theories and density functional theories-for the equilibrium thermodynamic and structural properties of classical systems. Emphasizing practical applications, the book avoids complex theoretical derivations as much as possible. Appropriate for experienced researchers as well as postgraduate students, the text presents a wide-ranging yet detailed view and provides a useful guide to the application of the theories described.

A priority programme of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) was conducted to investigate the thermophysical and thermochemical fundamentals relevant for process design in the chemical and petrochemical industry as well as for biotechnological and environmental process sciences. The priority programme comprised 27 projects in which researchers form various disciplines like applied thermodynamics, industrial chemistry, physical chemistry, process sciences, or biotechnology collaborated to solve some of the major problems of modern thermodynamics. The research results are exclusively documented in this book and cover topics like phase equilibrium in chemical reactive mixtures, in aqueous solutions of electrolytes, aqueous two-phase systems and polymer solutions, high pressure fluid phase equilibria, and microemulsion systems. The results contribute to a better understanding of important phase equilibrium phenomena and help to improve process models.

This book has been prepared under the auspices of Commission I.2 on Thermodynamics of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). The authors of the 18 chapters are all recognized experts in the field. The book gives an up-to-date presentation of equations of state for fluids and fluid mixtures. All principal approaches for developing equations of state are covered. The theoretical basis and practical use of each type of equation is discussed and the strength and weaknesses of each is addressed. Topics addressed include the virial equation of state, cubic equations and generalized van der Waals equations, perturbation theory, integral equations, corresponding stated and mixing rules. Special attention is also devoted to associating fluids, polydisperse fluids, polymer systems, self-assembled systems, ionic fluids and fluids near critical points.
