E. Yanagida recently proved that the classical Matukuma equation with a given exponent has only one nite mass solution. We show how similar ideas can be exploited to obtain uniqueness results for other classes of equations as well as Matukuma equations with more general coeecients. One particular example covered is u + u p u = 0, with p > 1. The key ingredients of the method are energy function...

The shape of the working fluid’s temperature-entropy saturation boundary has a strong influence, not only on the process parameters and efficiency of the Organic Rankine Cycle, but also on the design (the layout) of the equipment. In this paper, working fluids are modelled by the Redlich-Kwong equation of state. It is demonstrated that a limiting isochoric heat capacity might exist between dry ...

This study presents a comparative computational examination of different cubic equations state (EoS) on hydrate inhibition fluid systems involving real reservoir fluids. Two gas inhibitors (Monoethylene glycol – MEG and methanol) were considered alongside 4 EoS namely; Cubic-Plus-Association (CPA) coupled with Infochem mixing rules, Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) the Huron-Vidal (HV) rule, Peng Robi...

Kwong and Cheng’ recently reported a case of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) with absence of Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome and no bcr rearrangement. They showed the clonal nature of CNL by the methylation status of the X-linked hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase. (HPRT) gene. The clonal myeloproliferative nature of CNL was first documented in our report of a case of polycythemia vera (P...

We further elaborate on the generalized formulation for cubic equation of state proposed by Cismondi and Mollerup [Fluid Phase Equilib. 232, 74–89 (2005)]. With this formulation, all well-known equations can be described with a certain pair values, which allow generic implementation different state. Based we derive complete thermodynamic model computational fluid dynamics simulations providing ...
