Enthalpy measurement of coal-derived liquids. Technical progress report, August-January 1982. [Isobars of 517. 1, 689. 5, 1034. 2, 1379. 1, and 10342. 5 kPa temperature range of 340 to 664/sup 0/K]

The compound quinoline is discussed. Process flow in the flow calorimeter, operational problems, and equipment modifications are described. Procedural modifications, including a new sample purification procedure, are described. Quinoline enthalpy data are presented along the isobars of 517.1, 689.5, 1034.2, 1379.0, 3799.1, and 10342.5 kPa over a temperature range of 340 to 664/sup 0/K. Experimental enthalpy values and thermodynamic properties derived from this data are compared to corresponding values found in the literature, and to values predicted using computer aided calculations involving three correlations. The three correlations are: the SRK equation of state, and two modifications of the BWR equation of state by Kesler et al. and Starling, respectively. In general, the correlations do not accurately predict the thermodynamic behavior of quinoline. However, the experimental data compare well with available literature data for quinoline vapor pressures.
