A reliable prediction of the phase behavior is necessary in determining the compositions of the gas and liquid phases at various pressures. These calculations require stepwise computational procedure using a cubic equation of state (EOS). Since the heavy components in the petroleum mixtures have the strongest effect on the characteristics of the fluids, critical properties must be estimated for the petroleum fractions making up heptanes-plus. A phase equilibria calculation of a gas-condensate system with Peng-Robinson equation of state was done by satisfying the condition of chemical equilibrium. A genetic algorithm was used to determine the optimum critical properties of heptanes-plus (C7+) fraction. The predictions of the model are compared with the experimental results of the constant volume depletion (CVD) test.

Investigation of the layering mechanism of agglomerate growth during drum pelletization Sastry, KVS; Dontula, P; Hoşten, Çetin (Elsevier BV, 2003-02-19) Conventional drum pelletization circuits exhibit undesirable surging behavior that is known to result from uncontrolled occurrence of the mechanisms of nucleation, coalescence and layering. This study was undertaken to investigate the mechanism of pellet growth by layering. Several laboratory experiments were carried out to delineate the effect of feed moisture content and feed quantity. This paper presents an analysis of the experimental results and a simple model to describe the layering process. (C) 2002...
Dynamic analysis of changes in diffusion and sorption parameters in the reaction of SO2with activated soda ash Doǧu, Gülsen; Keskin, Alne; Doǧu, Timur (Wiley, 1988-8) Variations in pore structure cause significant changes in diffusion resistance and adsorption characteristics during the reaction of SO2 with activated soda. Breakthrough and moment analysis of the SO2‐activated soda ash reaction showed that the effective diffusion coefficient of SO2 in the solid product (mostly Na2SO3) was about three times smaller than its value in the original activated soda. About 30% of the diffusion flux of SO2 in the solid product was found to be due to surface diffusion. The adsorpt...
EVALUATION OF SECOND VIRIAL COEFFICIENTS FROM SATURATION DATA Orbey, H.; Orbey, N. (Informa UK Limited, 1989-3) A data reduction technique is introduced for the evaluation of second virial coefficients of gases at subcritical temperatures. The method makes use of the vapor-liquid equilibrium data, i.e., temperature, saturation pressure, liquid and vapor molar volumes and can be used to obtain second virial coefficients of a wide variety of fluids including polar, associating and quantum gases. The calculated second virial coefficients are in good agreement with their counterparts from literature, which are obtained f...
An empirical method for the second viral coefficients of non-standard fluids Kis, Konrad; Orbey, Hasan (Elsevier BV, 1989-9) A new empirical method is proposed for the extension of Pitzer-Curl type correlations of the second virial coefficient to non-standard fluids as define
Analysis of the electrofiltration mechanism based on multiphase filtration theory Genc, A; Tosun, I (Informa UK Limited, 2004-01-01) A mathematical model based on multiphase filtration theory is developed to describe the electrofiltration process. The model takes both electrophoretic and electroosmotic effects into account. The electrophoretic migration velocity of solid particles is predicted from the model using the filtrate volume time data obtained from electrofiltration experiments.
