A previously proposed [X. Shan and H. Chen, Phys. Rev. E 47, 1815, (1993)] lattice Boltzmann model for simulating fluids with multiple components and interparticle forces is described in detail. Macroscopic equations governing the motion of each component are derived by using Chapman-Enskog method. The mutual diffusivity in a binary mixture is calculated analytically and confirmed by numerical ...

In this paper, the vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) properties of polar and nonpolar fluids are modeled by the use of a statistically-based equation of state (EOS). The equation of state used in this work is that of Ihm-Song-Mason (ISM) EOS. An alternative approach is to revise the isothermal integration on liquid. In this respect, a temperature-dependent revision factor b (T) is introduced to th...

Abstract:  In this study, the change in the crystalline structure of gas hydrate was predicted for ternary mixture of methane-ethane-water. For this purpose, the tangent plane distance (TPD) minimization method was used. First, the calculations were performed for the binary mixtures of methane-water and ethane-water as the gas and liquid phases. The results show that for a binary mixture of th...

in the present work, the integral equations method is used to calculate transport properties of polar fluids. for this goal, we use the stockmayer potential and examine theoretically the thermal conductivity of several refrigerant mixtures such as r125+r134a, r125+r32, r125+r152a, r134a+r32, r152a+r32, r134a+r143a, and r125+r143a. we solve numerically the ornstein-zernike (oz) equation using th...

Transport properties of liquid methanol and ethanol are predicted by molecular dynamics simulation. The molecular models for the alcohols are rigid, nonpolarizable, and of united-atom type. They were developed in preceding work using experimental vapor-liquid equilibrium data only. Self- and Maxwell-Stefan diffusion coefficients as well as the shear viscosity of methanol, ethanol, and their bin...

The integrals of motion for a cylindrically symmetric stationary vortex are obtained in a covariant description of a mixture of interacting superconductors, superfluids and normal fluids. The relevant integrated stress–energy coefficients for the vortex with respect to a vortex–free reference state are calculated in the approximation of a “stiff”, i.e. least compressible, relativistic equation ...
