Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION and BASIC CONCEPTS THE IDEAL-GAS EQUATION OF STATE • Equation of state: Any equation that relates the pressure, temperature, and specific volume of a substance. • The simplest : ideal-gas equation of state. This equation predicts the P-v-T behavior of a gas quite accurately within some properly selected region. Ideal gas equation of state Note , P is absolute pressure T is absolute temperature R: gas constant M: molar mass (kg/kmol) Different substances have different Ru: universal gas constant gas constants. 1 Mass = Molar mass Mole number Real gases behave as an ideal Different forms of equation of state gas at low densities (i.e., low Pv= RT pressure, high PV=mRT temperature).

  • Chapter 3 3.4-2 the Compressibility Factor Equation of State
    Chapter 3 3.4-2 The Compressibility Factor Equation of State The dimensionless compressibility factor, Z, for a gaseous species is defined as the ratio pv Z = (3.4-1) RT If the gas behaves ideally Z = 1. The extent to which Z differs from 1 is a measure of the extent to which the gas is behaving nonideally. The compressibility can be determined from experimental data where Z is plotted versus a dimensionless reduced pressure pR and reduced temperature TR, defined as pR = p/pc and TR = T/Tc In these expressions, pc and Tc denote the critical pressure and temperature, respectively. A generalized compressibility chart of the form Z = f(pR, TR) is shown in Figure 3.4-1 for 10 different gases. The solid lines represent the best curves fitted to the data. Figure 3.4-1 Generalized compressibility chart for various gases10. It can be seen from Figure 3.4-1 that the value of Z tends to unity for all temperatures as pressure approach zero and Z also approaches unity for all pressure at very high temperature. If the p, v, and T data are available in table format or computer software then you should not use the generalized compressibility chart to evaluate p, v, and T since using Z is just another approximation to the real data. 10 Moran, M.

  • Real Gases – As Opposed to a Perfect Or Ideal Gas – Exhibit Properties That Cannot Be Explained Entirely Using the Ideal Gas Law
    Basic principle II Second class Dr. Arkan Jasim Hadi 1. Real gas Real gases – as opposed to a perfect or ideal gas – exhibit properties that cannot be explained entirely using the ideal gas law. To understand the behavior of real gases, the following must be taken into account: compressibility effects; variable specific heat capacity; van der Waals forces; non-equilibrium thermodynamic effects; Issues with molecular dissociation and elementary reactions with variable composition. Critical state and Reduced conditions Critical point: The point at highest temp. (Tc) and Pressure (Pc) at which a pure chemical species can exist in vapour/liquid equilibrium. The point critical is the point at which the liquid and vapour phases are not distinguishable; because of the liquid and vapour having same properties. Reduced properties of a fluid are a set of state variables normalized by the fluid's state properties at its critical point. These dimensionless thermodynamic coordinates, taken together with a substance's compressibility factor, provide the basis for the simplest form of the theorem of corresponding states The reduced pressure is defined as its actual pressure divided by its critical pressure : The reduced temperature of a fluid is its actual temperature, divided by its critical temperature: The reduced specific volume ") of a fluid is computed from the ideal gas law at the substance's critical pressure and temperature: This property is useful when the specific volume and either temperature or pressure are known, in which case the missing third property can be computed directly. 1 Basic principle II Second class Dr. Arkan Jasim Hadi In Kay's method, pseudocritical values for mixtures of gases are calculated on the assumption that each component in the mixture contributes to the pseudocritical value in the same proportion as the mol fraction of that component in the gas.

  • A Computationally Efficient and Accurate Numerical Representation
    EPJ Web of Conferences 25, 01025 (2012) DOI: 10.1051/epjconf/20122501025 © Owned by the authors, published by EDP Sciences, 2012 A COMPUTATIONALLY EFFICIENT AND ACCURATE NUMERICAL REPRESENTATION OF THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF STEAM AND WATER FOR COMPUTATIONS OF NON-EQUILIBRIUM CONDENSING STEAM FLOW IN STEAM TURBINES Jan HRUBÝ Abstract: Mathematical modeling of the non-equilibrium condensing transonic steam flow in the complex 3D geometry of a steam turbine is a demanding problem both concerning the physical concepts and the required computational power. Available accurate formulations of steam properties IAPWS-95 and IAPWS-IF97 require much computation time. For this reason, the modelers often accept the unrealistic ideal-gas behavior. Here we present a computation scheme based on a piecewise, thermodynamically consistent representation of the IAPWS-95 formulation. Density and internal energy are chosen as independent variables to avoid variable transformations and iterations. On the contrary to the previous Tabular Taylor Series Expansion Method, the pressure and temperature are continuous functions of the independent variables, which is a desirable property for the solution of the differential equations of the mass, energy, and momentum conservation for both phases. 1. INTRODUCTION Realistic computation of the flow of the condensing steam in a steam turbine is a prerequisite of development of more reliable and efficient turbines. Realistic computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model also includes properties of real steam. In a finite-volume computation, thermodynamic properties need to be evaluated several times in each volume element and each time step. Consequently, besides accuracy, the mathematical model must also be computationally efficient. The lack of such models is one of the reasons that often the real gas behavior is neglected and only the ideal gas equation is considered, despite a large error due to neglecting the real gas properties.

  • Experimental Investigation and Theoretical Modelling of a High-Pressure Pneumatic Catapult Considering Dynamic Leakage and Convection

In the thermodynamics processes, the pressure is much larger than the critical pressure, and the compressibility factor can deviate from the Zeno line significantly. Therefore, the pneumatic performance and thermo-physical properties need to be described with the real gas hypothesis instead of the ideal gas one. It is found that the analytical results based on the ideal gas model overestimate the performance of the catapult, in comparison to the test data. To obtain a theoretical model with dynamic leakage compensation, leakage tests are carried out, and the relationship among the leakage rate, pressure and stroke is fitted. The compressibility factor library of the equation of state for compressed air is established and evaluated by referring it to the Nelson-Obert generalized compressibility charts. Based on the Peng–Robinson equation, a theoretical model of the high-pressure pneumatic catapult is developed, in which the effects of dynamic leakage and the forced convective heat transfer between the gas and the metal wall are taken into account.

  • Ideal and Real Gases 1 the Ideal Gas Law 2 Virial Equations
    Ideal and Real Gases Ramu Ramachandran 1 The ideal gas law The ideal gas law can be derived from the two empirical gas laws, namely, Boyle’s law, pV = k1, at constant T, (1) and Charles’ law, V = k2T, at constant p, (2) where k1 and k2 are constants. From Eq. (1) and (2), we may assume that V is a function of p and T. Therefore, µ ¶ µ ¶ ∂V ∂V dV (p, T )= dp + dT. (3) ∂p T ∂T p 2 Substituting from above, we get (∂V/∂p)T = k1/p = V/p and (∂V/∂T )p = k2 = V/T.Thus, − − V V dV = dP + dT, or − p T dV dp dT + = . V p T Integrating this equation, we get ln V +lnp =lnT + c (4) where c is the constant of integration. Assigning (quite arbitrarily) ec = R,weget ln V +lnp =lnT +lnR,or pV = RT. (5) The constant R is, of course, the gas constant, whose value has been determined experimentally. 2 Virial equations The compressibility factor of a gas Z is defined as Z = pV/(nRT )=pVm/(RT), where the subscript on V indicates that this is a molar quantity. Obviously, for an ideal gas, Z =1always. For real gases, additional corrections have to be introduced. Virial equations are expressions in which such corrections can be systematically incorporated. For example, B(T ) C(T ) Z =1+ + 2 + ...

  • Compressibility Factor of Nitrogen from the Speed of Sound Measurements
    10th International research/expert conference Trends in the Development of Machinery and Associated Technology TMT 2006, Barcelona- Lloret de Mar, Spain, 11-15 Septembar, 2006. COMPRESSIBILITY FACTOR OF NITROGEN FROM THE SPEED OF SOUND MEASUREMENTS Prof. dr. Muhamed BIJEDIĆ, dipl.ing. Tehnološki fakultet u Tuzli, B&H Prof. dr. Nagib NEIMARLIJA, dipl.ing. Mašinski fakultet u Zenici, B&H M. Sc. Enver ĐIDIĆ, dipl.ing. BNT-TMiH Novi Travnik, B&H ABSTRACT This paper presents a new approach to the nitrogen compressibility factor calculation by means of sound speed experimental data. The approach is based on numerical integration of differential equations connecting speed of sound with other thermodynamic properties. The method requires initial conditions in the form of compressibility factor and heat capacity to be imposed at single temperature and pressure range of interest. It is tested with derived compressibility factor of nitrogen in pressure range form 0.3 MPa to 10.2 MPa and temperatures between 300 K and350 K. Calculated absolute average error is 0.018%, and maximum error better than 0.12%. Key words: nitrogen, speed of sound, compressibility factor, heat capacity 1. INTRODUCTION There are several ways to derive thermodynamic properties from speed of sound data. I the first approach restrictive assumptions are not imposed in the form of an equation of state. Speeds of sound are simply combined with other observable properties in order to obtain one or more other properties through exact thermodynamic identities. This approach can be applied on single state or on area of thermodynamic surface [1]. In the second approach explicit or implicit parameterization of equation of state is assumed, whose parameters are fitted only to experimental speeds of sound.

  • Ideal Gas Equation of State.Pdf
    EQUATION OF STATE The Ideal-Gas Equation of State Any equation that relates the pressure, temperature, and specific volume of a substance is called an equation of state. The simplest and best known equation of state for substances in the gas phase is the ideal-gas equation of state. Gas and vapor are often used as synonymous words. The vapor phase of a substance is called a gas when it is above the critical temperature. Vapor usually implies a gas that is not far from a state of condensation. It is experimentally observed that at a low pressure the volume of a gas is proportional to its temperature: 1 or Pv = RT where R is the gas constant. The above equation is called the ideal-gas equation of state (ideal gas relation). Since R is a constant for a gas, one can write: P v P v R = 1 1 = 2 2 T T 1 2 where subscripts 1 and 2 denote two states of an ideal gas. Note that the constant R is different for each gas; see Tables A1 and A2 in Cengel book. The ideal gas equation of state can be written in several forms: where / is the molar specific volume. That is the volume per unit mole. Ru = 8.314 kJ / (kmol. K) is the universal gas constant, R = Ru /M. The molar mass M: is defined as the mass of one mole of a substance (in gmole or kgmol). The mass of a system is equal to the product of its molar mass M and the mole number N: m = MN (kg) See Table A-1 for R and M for several substances.
