In process simulation, reliable and accurate property estimation methods play an important role in the solution of various simulation problems where convergence is often traced to failures in the reliable predictions of physical and thermodynamic properties. Convergence and reliability of the simulation is heavily dependent on the fluid package selected. Predictions of phase equilibrium using v...

A concentration-dependent surface area parameter model (Iwai, Fluid Phase Equilibria, 465 (2018) 24–32) was modified to avoid the restriction conditions for parameters of pure components. The is applied correlate ternary liquid-liquid equilibria and constituent binary phase with one set parameters. correlated results both vapor-liquid obtained by are better than those NRTL UNIQUAC models. simul...

با توجه به رشد بالای جمعیت در جهان و نیاز اطمینان از امنیت غذایی، افزایش تولید واحد سطح محصولات زراعی به‌منزلة راهبردی اساسی حل مسئلة تأمین غذا به‌شمار می‌رود. سوی دیگر، وجود محدودیت زیرکشت پایین‌بودن میانگین عملکرد برخی کشاورزی مانند گندم کشور، محصول می‌تواند راهکاری عملی پاسخ کشور محسوب شود. یکی مهم‌ترین بیماری‌های فوزاریوم است که، نقش پیش‌بینی این بیماری جلوگیری کاهش بهره‌وری محصول، مدل‌هایی...

A novel approach for enclosing all heterogeneous and reactive azeotropes in multi-component mixtures is presented. The thermodynamic conditions for azeotropy form a system of nonlinear equations. A deterministic global optimization approach is introduced in which the global optimization problem may contain multiple global minima and there is a one-to-one correspondence between each global minim...

An excess Gibbs free energy model is applied to in®estigate the influence of n-paraffin composition on the aging beha®ior of wax-oil gel deposits known to form in subsea petroleum transport pipelines. The aging of wax-oil gels occurs by a counterdiffusion process where wax molecules with carbon numbers greater than a critical carbon num( ) ber CCN diffuse into the gel matrix, and ®ice ®ersa. Mo...

This paper reports experimental data and the thermodynamic modeling of the liquid-liquid equilibrium systems with triacylglycerols, free fatty acids (obtained from olive oil), ethanol and water. The experimental data were fitted using the UNIQUAC model, in which absolute deviation of 1.28 % and root mean square deviation of 2.10 % between experimental and calculated mass fraction of the compone...

Boiling points have been determined at 101.33 kPa for the binary mixtures of sulfolane + o-xylene, sulfolane + m-xylene, sulfolane+p-xylene, sulfolane+ethylbenzene and sulfolane+1,2,4-trimethylbenzene. Calculations of the non-ideality of the vapor phase were made with the second virial coefficients evaluated from the Hayden–O’Connell method. The binary parameters for five activity coefficient m...
