Volumetric properties of high temperature, high pressure supercritical fluids from improved van der Waals equation of state
In the present work, a modified equation of state has been presented for the calculation of volumetric properties of supercritical fluids. The equation of state is van der Waals basis with temperature and density-dependent parameters. This equation of state has been applied for predicting the volumetric properties of fluids. The densities of fluids were calculated from the new equation of state...
متن کاملNumerical Predictions of Turbulent Mixed Convection Heat Transfer to Supercritical Fluids Using Various Low Reynolds Number k-e Turbulence Models
There are a number of systems in which supercritical cryogenic fluids are used as coolants or propellant fluids. In some modern military aircraft, the fuel is pressurized above its critical point and used as a coolant to remove heat from the aircraft engine. Accurate prediction of heat transfer coefficients to turbulent flows of supercritical fluids is essential in design of such systems. One o...
متن کاملHydrothermal synthesis nanoparticle bysupercritical fluid
Supercritical fluid (SCF) technology has become an important tool of materials processing in the lasttwo decades. Supercritical CO2 and H2O are extensively being used in the preparation of a great variety ofnanomaterials. The greatest requirement in the application of nanomaterials is its size and morphology control, which determine the application potential of the nanoparticles, as...
متن کاملComparison of two methods of carbon nanotube synthesis: CVD and supercritical process (A review)
A carbon nanotube (CNT) is a miniature cylindrical carbon structure that has hexagonalgraphite molecules attached at the edges. Nanotubes look like a powder or black soot, but they'reactually rolled-up sheets of graphene that form hollow strands with walls that are only one atom thick.Carbon nanotube has been one of the most actively explored materials in recent year(s) due to...
متن کاملSupercritical Carbon Dioxide and Its Potential as a Life-Sustaining Solvent in a Planetary Environment
Supercritical fluids have different properties compared to regular fluids and could play a role as life-sustaining solvents on other worlds. Even on Earth, some bacterial species have been shown to be tolerant to supercritical fluids. The special properties of supercritical fluids, which include various types of selectivities (e.g., stereo-, regio-, and chemo-selectivity) have recently been rec...
