Applications of the Soave-Redlich-Kwong Equations of State Using Matlab

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, using Matlab to solve Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) EOS, as well as the estimation of pure component properties, plotting of vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) diagram and calculation of chemical equilibrium, is presented. First the SRK EOS is used to predict several pure-component properties, such as liquid and gas molar volumes for isobutane. The vapor-liquid isobaric diagram is then plotted for a binary mixture composed of n-pentane and n-hexane under the pressures of 1.5*10^5 and 7*10^5 Pa respectively. Finally, the extent of ammonia synthesis reaction under high pressure is calculated.
