Equation of state

1787

However, Mariotte's work was not published until 1676. === Charles's law or Law of Charles and Gay-Lussac (1787) === In 1787 the French physicist Jacques Charles found that oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and air expand to roughly the same extent over the same 80-kelvin interval.

1873

However, later work revealed that the number should actually be closer to 273.2, and then the Celsius scale was defined with 0°C = 273.15K, giving: pV_m = R \left(T_C + 273.15\ {}^\circ\text{C}\right). === Van der Waals equation of state (1873) === In 1873, J.

The substance-specific constants a and b can be calculated from the critical properties p_c, T_c, and V_c (noting that V_c is the molar volume at the critical point) as: a = 3 p_c V_c^2 b = \frac{V_c}{3}. Also written as a = \frac{27(R T_c)^2}{64p_c} b = \frac{R T_c}{8p_c}. Proposed in 1873, the van der Waals equation of state was one of the first to perform markedly better than the ideal gas law.

1949

The largest and the lowest solution are the gas and liquid reduced volume. === Redlich-Kwong equation of state=== \begin{align} p &= \frac{R\,T}{V_m - b} - \frac{a}{\sqrt{T}\,V_m\left(V_m + b\right)} \\[3pt] a &\approx 0.42748\frac{R^2\,T_c^\frac{5}{2}}{p_c} \\[3pt] b &\approx 0.08664\frac{R\,T_c}{p_c} \end{align} Introduced in 1949, the Redlich-Kwong equation of state was a considerable improvement over other equations of the time.

1972

The original formulation from Soave is: \alpha = \left(1 + \left(0.480 + 1.574\,\omega - 0.176\,\omega^2\right) \left(1-T_r^{0.5}\right)\right)^2 for hydrogen: \alpha = 1.202 \exp\left(-0.30288\,T_r\right). We can also write it in the polynomial form, with: A = \frac{a \alpha P}{R^2 T^2} B = \frac{bP}{RT} then we have: 0 = Z^3-Z^2+Z\left(A-B-B^2\right) - AB where R is the universal gas constant and Z=PV/(RT) is the compressibility factor. In 1972 G.

1990

Values for a === Elliott, Suresh, Donohue equation of state === The Elliott, Suresh, and Donohue (ESD) equation of state was proposed in 1990.
