Medium model of a mixture of ideal gases based on NASA source

Information


This model calculates the medium properties for single component ideal gases.

Sources for model and literature:
Original Data: Computer program for calculation of complex chemical equilibrium compositions and applications. Part 1: Analysis Document ID: 19950013764 N (95N20180) File Series: NASA Technical Reports Report Number: NASA-RP-1311 E-8017 NAS 1.61:1311 Authors: Gordon, Sanford (NASA Lewis Research Center) Mcbride, Bonnie J. (NASA Lewis Research Center) Published: Oct 01, 1994.

Known limits of validity:
The data is valid for temperatures between 200 K and 6000 K. A few of the data sets for monatomic gases have a discontinuous 1st derivative at 1000 K, but this never caused problems so far.

This model has been copied from the ThermoFluid library. It has been developed by Hubertus Tummescheit.

Return viscosities of gas mixtures at low pressures (Wilke method)

Information



Simplification of the kinetic theory (Chapman and Enskog theory) approach neglecting the second-order effects.

This equation has been extensively tested (Amdur and Mason, 1958; Bromley and Wilke, 1951; Cheung, 1958; Dahler, 1959; Gandhi and Saxena, 1964; Ranz and Brodowsky, 1962; Saxena and Gambhir, 1963a; Strunk, et al., 1964; Vanderslice, et al. 1962; Wright and Gray, 1962). In most cases, only nonpolar mixtures were compared, and very good results obtained. For some systems containing hydrogen as one component, less satisfactory agreement was noted. Wilke's method predicted mixture viscosities that were larger than experimental for the H2-N2 system, but for H2-NH3, it underestimated the viscosities.
Gururaja, et al. (1967) found that this method also overpredicted in the H2-O2 case but was quite accurate for the H2-CO2 system.
Wilke's approximation has proved reliable even for polar-polar gas mixtures of aliphatic alcohols (Reid and Belenyessy, 1960). The principal reservation appears to lie in those cases where Mi>>Mj and etai>>etaj.

Information



Equation to estimate the viscosity of gas mixtures at low pressures.
It is a simplification of an extension of the rigorous kinetic theory of Chapman and Enskog to determine the viscosity of multicomponent mixtures, at low pressures and with a factor to correct for molecule shape and polarity.

The input argument Kappa is a special correction for highly polar substances such as alcohols and acids.
Values of kappa for a few such materials:

Return thermal conductivities of low-pressure gas mixtures (Mason and Saxena Modification)

Information



This function applies the Masson and Saxena modification of the Wassiljewa Equation for the thermal conductivity for gas mixtures of n elements at low pressure.

For nonpolar gas mixtures errors will generally be less than 3 to 4%. For mixtures of nonpolar-polar and polar-polar gases, errors greater than 5 to 8% may be expected. For mixtures in which the sizes and polarities of the constituent molecules are not greatly different, the thermal conductivity can be estimated satisfactorily by a mole fraction average of the pure component conductivities.
