QUESTION 4
By the departure function methodology, the changes in thermodynamic properties of real gases can be estimated from ideal gas heat capacities and real gas volumetric Equation Of State (EOS).
A) Explain why ideal gas heat capacities are used for calculation of property changes for real gases under the departure function methodology
[4 marks]
B) The computed departure function of a property is a positive numerical value. (Ys or No)? Why?
[4 marks]
C) The enthalpy departure in terms of volume-explicit v=v(T,P) volumetric EOS is given by Equation (4C) below:
h(T,P)dep=P=0P=P[v--T(delvdelT)P]dP
Eq.(4C)
i) Transform (showing your calculations clearly) Eq.(4C) to h(T,p)dep in terms of the compressibility factor (Z) and pressure-explicit P=P(T,v) volumetric EOS [7 marks]
ii) Use your answer in Q4 C (i) above and the van der Waals (VdW) EOS, calculate the molar enthalpy departure for 0.0016m3 of butane at 2MPa and 433K[10 marks] Data
