A New Correlative Model for Surface Tension of Mixtures: Hydrocarbon Mixtures

نویسنده

  • E. S. BEZERRA
چکیده

This article presents a new correlative model for surface tension of mixtures. This model is an extension of a predictive model recently proposed by our group. Other correlative models were evaluated and compared to the proposed model. Hydrocarbons mixtures exhibiting chemical nature or shape and chain size asymmetries were chosen as the standard to test the performance of the chosen models at several temperatures. A total of 1433 experimental data was used. All of the correlative models studied showed very good results. However, an F-test study pointed out that there are still opportunities in modeling for describing the studied data within the experimental uncertainties.

A New Surface Tension Model for Prediction of Interaction Energy between Components and Activity Coefficients in Binary Systems

In this work, we develop a correlative model based on the surface tension data in order to calculate thermodynamic parameters, such as interaction energy between components (Uij), activity coefficients and etc. In the new approach, by using Li et al. (LWW) model, a three-parameter surface tension equation is derived for liquid mixtures. The surface tension data of 54 aqueous and 73 non-aqueous ...

Surface Tension Prediction of Hydrocarbon Mixtures Using Artificial Neural Network

In this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the surface tension of 20 hydrocarbon mixtures. Experimental data was divided into two parts (70% for training and 30% for testing). Optimal configuration of the network was obtained with minimization of prediction error on testing data. The accuracy of our proposed model was compared with four well-known empirical equations. The arti...

The Prediction of Surface Tension of Ternary Mixtures at Different Temperatures Using Artificial Neural Networks

In this work, artificial neural network (ANN) has been employed to propose a practical model for predicting the surface tension of multi-component mixtures. In order to develop a reliable model based on the ANN, a comprehensive experimental data set including 15 ternary liquid mixtures at different temperatures was employed. These systems consist of 777 data points generally containing hydrocar...

A New Correlation for Prediction of Wax Disappearance Temperature of Hydrocarbon Mixtures at Various Pressures

  Wax precipitate is one of the most serious issues the oil industry is currently facing, since it can cause some troubles such as increasing of the pressure losses in pipe which subsequently increases the required power for pumpage. To remove this problem, prediction of wax disappearance temperature (WDT) seems necessary. In this study, the pressure influence on the wax disappearance temperatu...
