Title: Applied hydrocarbon thermodynamics: Volume 2, 2nd edition

Abstract

This book contains the latest computer developments and applications in hydrocarbon process simulation and design. In addition to charts, tables, and figures, this new edition also has sample input and output that illustrate how to program thermodynamic data and calculations. The book's features include data bank for 213 hydrocarbons and associated gases; a computer breakdown of petroleum fractions into 11 or 21 pseudo components from ASTM and TBP assays of the oil; acceptance of narrow petroleum cuts as hypothetical feed components; bubble and dew-point temperature or pressure calculations; alternated flash calculations to find unknown temperature, pressure or vapor fraction; enthalpy or entropy balance flashers; adiabatic/polytropic compression and expansion design calculations for gases; compressible fluid flow calculations; enthalpies at alternate datum states; and heats of chemical reactions and chemical reaction equilibria.
