Classical and Molecular Thermodynamics of Fluid Systems
This text explores the connections between different thermodynamic subjects related to fluid systems. In an innovative way, it covers the subject from first principles to the state of the art in fundamental and applied topics. Using simple nomenclature and algebra, it clarifies concepts by returning to the conceptual foundation of thermodynamics. The structural elements of classical and molecular thermodynamics of fluid systems presented cover, via examples and references, both the usefulness and the limitations of thermodynamics for the treatment of practical problems. This new edition explores recent advances in statistical associated fluid theories and contains creative end‐of‐chapter problems connecting the theory with real‐life situations. It includes new chapters on thermodynamics of polymer solutions and molecular thermodynamics and also presents advances in the study of the activity of individual ions. Provides a concise structure of concepts, using simple nomenclature and algebra Clarifies problems usually overlooked by standard texts Features end‐of‐chapter problems to enhance the reader’s understanding of the concepts Includes diverse topics of interest to researchers and advanced students, including elements of statistical thermodynamics, models of solutions, statistical associated fluid theory and the activity of individual ions Offers four appendices giving step‐by‐step procedures and parameters for direct use of the PRSV equation of state and the ASOG‐KT group method for fugacity and activity coefficient calculations Features a complete set of solutions to problems throughout the book, available for download on the book’s webpage under "Support Material" This textbook is written for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying chemical engineering and chemistry as well as for practicing engineers and researchers.
Classical Thermodynamics of Fluid Systems
This text explores the connections between different thermodynamic subjects related to fluid systems. Emphasis is placed on the clarification of concepts by returning to the conceptual foundation of thermodynamics and special effort is directed to the use of a simple nomenclature and algebra. The book presents the structural elements of classical thermodynamics of fluid systems, covers the treatment of mixtures, and shows via examples and references both the usefulness and the limitations of classical thermodynamics for the treatment of practical problems related to fluid systems. It also includes diverse selected topics of interest to researchers and advanced students and four practical appendices, including an introduction to material balances and step-by-step procedures for using the Virial EOS and the PRSV EOS for fugacities and the ASOG-KT group method for activity coefficients. The Olivera-Fuentes table of PRSV parameters for more than 800 chemical compounds and the Gmehling-Tochigi tables of ASOG interaction parameters for 43 groups are included.

The book guides the reader from the foundations of statisti- cal thermodynamics including the theory of intermolecular forces to modern computer-aided applications in chemical en- gineering and physical chemistry. The approach is new. The foundations of quantum and statistical mechanics are presen- ted in a simple way and their applications to the prediction of fluid phase behavior of real systems are demonstrated. A particular effort is made to introduce the reader to expli- cit formulations of intermolecular interaction models and to show how these models influence the properties of fluid sy- stems. The established methods of statistical mechanics - computer simulation, perturbation theory, and numerical in- tegration - are discussed in a style appropriate for newcom- ers and are extensively applied. Numerous worked examples illustrate how practical calculations should be carried out.
