Subject Index 207 Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 7O-6O632O ii Equilibrium Critical Phenomena in Fluids and Mixtures: A Comprehensive Bibliography with Key-Word Descriptors Stella Michaels*, Melville S. Green*, and Sigurd Y. Larsen* This bibliography of 1088 citations comprehensively covers relevant research conducted throughout the world between January 1, 1950 through December 31, 1967. Each entry is charac- terized by specific key word descriptors, of which there are approximately 1500, and is indexed both by subject and by author. In the case of foreign language publications, effort was made to find translations which are also cited. Key words: Binary liquid mixtures; critical opalescence; critical phenomena; critical point; critical region; equilibrium critical phenomena; gases; liquid-vapor systems; liquids; phase transitions; ternairy liquid mixtures; thermodynamics 1. Introduction This bibliographical project was begun as an experiment in connection with the re- newed research interest in the rather old subject of critical phenomena. Ever since its discovery in carbon dioxide by Thomas Andrews (1863)*, the phenomena in the neighborhood of the critical point of liquid-vapor transition and other analogous phenomena have given rise to numerous experimental investigations of greater or lesser permanent value. The motivation of the project was to search out this vast literature in order that those papers of more than ephemeral interest would be available to the scientific commu- nity. Originally, the bibliography was intended to include the general field of second- order phase transitions as well as critical phenomena in the stricter sense and was to be divided into two parts - an historical part covering the period prior to 1950, and a modern part covering 1950 onward. It was quickly decided to defer the historical part and to limit the present bibliography to critical phenomena in a stricter sense. The bibliography is intended to include all studies of equilibrium properties of the critical point of liquid-vapor systems and of binary and ternary liquid mixtures. Excluded * At the time of compilation of this material, Mrs. Michaels was a member of the Bibliogra- phy and Translation Unit, National Bureau of Standards Library; Dr. Green was Chief, Statis- tical Physics Section, Heat Division, Institute for Basic Standards; and Dr. Larsen was a metober of the Statistical Physics Section, Heat Division. The present address for Mrs. Michaels is the Center for Computer Sciences and Technology, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234, and for Dr. Green and Dr. Larsen, Temple University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19122. iii were general studies which included the critical region but did not make a special study of it, simple measurement of critical constants, and compilations of data. The time period covered is from January 1, 1950 through December 31, 1967. Studies published in all major scientific languages except Qiinese, in which adequate sources of information were availabl to us, were surveyed. Each paper was analyzed and was associated with a number of key word descriptors with a primary division as to type of research, i.e., experimental, theoretical, or analytical being made first. Another primary categorization was made according to the type of system, namely, liquid-vapor and binary or ternary liquid mixtures. Other descriptors included pro perty measured, theoretical method used, and the chemical name of the substance measured. Approximately 1500 distinct descriptors were used to describe the papers. Each paper is characterized by roughly seven to ten descriptors. A subject index is also included through which all papers described by ,a given key word can be identified. All entries are cited in English. In the case of foreign language papers, the original language is noted in brackets. Whenever possible, translations of foreign language documents are also cited. Authors' names appear in the citations as they were published in the original paper - initials in one case - full name in the next. But, all authors' names have been standard- ized in the author index. In order to assure comprehensive coverage, not only were the major abstracting servi- ces used, but also systematic searches of selected publications were made. Listings of both appear elsewhere in this manuscript. The standard for abbreviations was that of the American Chemical Society and a list of these abbreviations is provided. Here we take the opportunity to thank those individuals who were so helpful to us du- ring the compilation of this bibliography. Miss Sarah Anne Jones, retired Chief of the Bureau Library in which large portions of our studies were made; Mr. William Sartain, Chief Stack and Reader Division, Library of Congress, who made that vast and valuable collection accessible to us; Dr. Raymond Mountain, Chief, Statistical Physics Section, NBS, for his generous assistance; Mrs. Patricia Jacobs and Miss Nancye E.

ABSTRACT The fractal dimension of Ising and Potts clusters are determined via the Fixed Scale Trans- formation approach, which exploits both the self-similarity and the dynamical invariance of these systems at criticality. The results are easily extended to droplets. A discussion of inter-relations be- tween the present approach and renormalization group methods as well as Glauber—type dynamics is provided. MIRAMARE - TRIESTE May 1990 To be submitted for publication. T 1. INTRODUCTION The Fixed Scale Transformation, a novel technique introduced 1)i2) for computing the fractal dimension of Laplacian growth clusters, is applied here to the equilibrium problem of Ising clusters at criticality, in two dimensions. The method yields veiy good quantitative agreement with the known exact results. The same method has also recendy been applied to the problem of percolation clusters 3* and to invasion percolation 4), also with very good results. The fractal dimension D of the Ising clusters, i.e., the connected clusters of sites with identical spins, has been a controversial issue for a long time ^ (see extensive references in Refs.5 and 6).

  • Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena: an Essay in Natural Philosophy (Thales to Onsager)
    Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena: An Essay in Natural Philosophy (Thales to Onsager) Prof. David A. Edwards Department of Mathematics University of Georgia Athens, Georgia 30602 http://www.math.uga.edu/~davide/ http://davidaedwards.tumblr.com/ [email protected] §1. Introduction. In this essay we will present a detailed analysis of the concepts and mathematics that underlie statistical mechanics. For a similar discussion of classical and quantum mechanics the reader is referred to [E-1] and [E-4]. For a similar discussion of quantum field theory the reader is referred to [E-2]. For a discussion of quantum geometrodynamics the reader is referred to [E- 3] Scientific theories go through many stages in their development, some eventually reaching the stage at which one might say that "the only work left to be done is the computing of the next decimal." We shall call such theories climax theories in analogy with the notion of a climax forest (other analogies are also appropriate). A climax theory has two parts: one theoretical, which has become part of pure mathematics; and the other empirical, which somehow relates the mathematics to experience. The earliest example of a climax theory is Euclidean geometry. That such a development of geometry is even possible is not obvious. One can easily imagine an Egyptian geometer explaining to a Babylonian number theorist why geometry could never become a precise science like number theory because pyramids and other such bodies are intrinsically irregular and fuzzy (similar discussions occur often today between biologists and physicists). Archimedes' fundamental work showing that the four fundamental constants related to circles and spheres (C =αr, A = βr2 , S = ϒr 2, V= δr3 ) are all simply related (1/2α=β = 1/4ϒ= 3/4δ= π), together with his estimate that 3+10/71< π < 3+1/7 will serve for us as the paradigm of what science should be all about.

  • Thermodynamic Derivation of Scaling at the Liquid–Vapor Critical Point
    entropy Article Thermodynamic Derivation of Scaling at the Liquid–Vapor Critical Point Juan Carlos Obeso-Jureidini , Daniela Olascoaga and Victor Romero-Rochín * Instituto de Física, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Apartado Postal 20-364, Ciudad de México 01000, Mexico; [email protected] (J.C.O.-J.); [email protected] (D.O.) * Correspondence: romero@fisica.unam.mx; Tel.: +52-55-5622-5096 Abstract: With the use of thermodynamics and general equilibrium conditions only, we study the entropy of a fluid in the vicinity of the critical point of the liquid–vapor phase transition. By assuming a general form for the coexistence curve in the vicinity of the critical point, we show that the functional dependence of the entropy as a function of energy and particle densities necessarily obeys the scaling form hypothesized by Widom. Our analysis allows for a discussion of the properties of the corresponding scaling function, with the interesting prediction that the critical isotherm has the same functional dependence, between the energy and the number of particles densities, as the coexistence curve. In addition to the derivation of the expected equalities of the critical exponents, the conditions that lead to scaling also imply that, while the specific heat at constant volume can diverge at the critical point, the isothermal compressibility must do so.

Determination of Viscosity in Ethanol and HFA 134a Mixtures Rob Johnson,1 Daniel I. Lewis,1 Paul M. Young,1 Henk K. Versteeg,2 and Graham Hargrave2 1Oz-UK Limited, Chippenham, Wiltshire UK 2Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering, Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK KEYWORDS: binary mixtures, transient aerodynamic atomization model, metered dose inhaler, propellant INTRODUCTION Knowledge of formulation liquid properties is beneficial when modelling internal transient flows of pMDI HFA 134a and ethanol binary mixtures during atomization [1, 2]. Non-linear expressions are available that correlate saturated vapor pressure, density and surface tension to HFA 134a-ethanol composition [3, 4]. In this study, experimentally determined dynamic viscosity is presented for ethanol-HFA 134a mixtures at 20.4 ± 1.2°C. MATERIALS AND METHODS Viscosity can be described as a fluid’s resistance to shear strain when submitted to a shear stress. For a sphere travelling within a closed capillary containing a liquid, the dynamic viscosity, µ, of the liquid is given by Equation 1 where K is the viscometer constant; rs and rL are the densities of the sphere and liquid respectively; and t is the time of travel of the sphere between two fixed graduation lines. Equation 1 is valid for non-turbulent flow where the sphere is travelling at terminal velocity. To determine the viscosity of HFA 134a (Mexichem Fluor, Runcorn, UK), absolute ethanol (Fisher Scientific, Loughborough, UK) and mixtures, formulations were packaged within a Comes DM density measuring device with a 90 mL Pyrex inner tube (DH Industries Limited, Laindon, UK).

  • Classifying Potts Critical Lines
    Classifying Potts critical lines Gesualdo Delfino1,2 and Elena Tartaglia1,2 1SISSA – Via Bonomea 265, 34136 Trieste, Italy 2INFN sezione di Trieste Abstract We use scale invariant scattering theory to exactly determine the lines of renormalization group fixed points invariant under the permutational symmetry Sq in two dimensions, and show how one of these scattering solutions describes the ferromagnetic and square lattice antiferromagnetic critical lines of the q-state Potts model. Other solutions we determine should correspond to new critical lines. In particular, we obtain that a Sq-invariant fixed point can be found up to the maximal value q = (7+ √17)/2. This is larger than the usually assumed maximal value 4 and leaves room for a second order antiferromagnetic transition at q = 5. arXiv:1707.00998v2 [cond-mat.stat-mech] 16 Oct 2017 1 Introduction Symmetry plays a prominent role within the theory of critical phenomena. The circumstance is usually illustrated referring to ferromagnetism, for which systems with different microscopic real- izations but sharing invariance under transformations of the same group G of internal symmetry fall within the same universality class of critical behavior. In the language of the renormalization group (see e.g. [1]) this amounts to say that the critical behavior of these ferromagnets is ruled by the same G-invariant fixed point. In general, however, there are several G-invariant fixed points of the renormalization group in a given dimensionality. Even staying within ferromag- netism, a system with several tunable parameters may exhibit multicriticality corresponding to fixed points with the same symmetry but different field content.

NRTL liquid activity coefficient model and PRO/II with PROVISION 6.01, a commercial process simulator, were used to simulate the overall azeotropic distillation process. We determined the total reboiler heat duties as an objective function and the concentration of IPA at concentrator top as a manipulated variable. As a result, 38.7 mole percent of IPA at concentrator top gave the optimum value that minimized the total reboiler heat duties of the three distillation columns.

  • Cleaning with Alcohol and Cyclohexane
    CLEANING WITH ALCOHOL AND CYCLOHEXANE Peter G. Davis Forward Technology Industries Time has run out for many managers responsible for replacing ozone depleting substances (ODS) in their cleaning processes, and they must now choose between a variety of alternative technologies. Recently, many of these managers have chosen cleaning processes involving Alcohol or Cyclohexane. These non-ODS solvents have a proven record of excellent results for precision cleaning applications, and can be implemented for relatively low cost in safe systems that clean using the same processes as conventional vapor-degreasing equipment. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS FOR ALCOHOL Typical applications for alcohols include removal of particle contamination and inorganic films such as salts, fingerprints, and highly activated fluxes from: Precision mechanical components Printed circuit boards Hybrid junctions Electromechanical components Optical instruments Medical devices and components For electronics cleaning, alcohol is used extensively for printed circuit board defluxing and cleaning handling soils from critical electronic assemblies like gyroscope and cesium beam clock components. Alcohol offers excellent cleaning results, and parts can usually pass dielectric tests immediately after cleaning. As alcohol is already pre-qualified for many milspec requirements, it can be immediately substituted for ODS processes in many critical military applications. For precision mechanical components and optics devices, alcohol is recognized for its superior particle removal capabilities. Alcohol’s polar molecular chemistry results in repulsion forces between particles and the surface. These forces tend to shield the effect of van der walls forces and dissipate electrostatic forces to the extent that alcohol is approximately twice as effective for removal of micron-sized particles than water.
