Title: The properties of gases and liquids

Book ·
OSTI ID:6504847

The fourth edition of this reference volume gives the property values for more than six hundred pure chemicals and also provides a critical survey of the most reliable estimating methods. The book further demonstrates how to estimate physical and thermodynamic properties when experimental data are not available. Physical properties include critical constants, vapor pressures, viscosities, diffusion coefficients, and surface tension, thermodynamic properties include densities, enthalpies, entropies, fugacity coefficients, and heat capacities. Techniques for estimating vapor/liquid and liquid/liquid equilibria for separation operations such as distillation, absorption, and extraction, are also covered.
