Trusler JPM, 2000, 3 The virial equation of state, Experimental Thermodynamics, Vol: 5, Pages: 35-74, ISSN: 1874-5644

In one sense, being restricted to gases at low and moderate densities, the virial equation of state is of rather limited application. Nevertheless, it has the merits of a sound theoretical basis, a large database of experimentally-determined virial coefficients, and the ability to describe mixtures exactly. The relations set out in Table 3.2 may be used to express a wide range of thermodynamic properties of pure gases and mixtures in terms of the virial coefficients, their temperature derivatives and the heat capacity of the ideal gas. The virial coefficients may be obtained from experiment, from knowledge of the intermolecular potential-energy functions or from the principle of corresponding states. The relations between the virial coefficients and intermolecular forces is of real importance and has therefore been explored in detail. Equations (3.52), (3.54), and (3.55) may be used to determine B and C from u12 and Δu3 at temperatures where quantum corrections are unimportant. Quantum effects have also been considered above in sufficient detail to permit their calculation for the atomic and molecular systems of interest. Because such calculations can now be performed routinely, even for non-spherical molecules, it is perfectly feasible to represent the equation of state correct at least to the third virial coefficient by means of prescribed pair and triplet potentials. © 2000 Elsevier B.V.

In this paper we report initial results from space experiments in which heat transport in near-critical SF6 was studied. The experiment utilized the Critical Point Facility (CPF) which was flown aboard ESA's Spacelab in the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle Columbia during the 1994 IML-2 mission. We report temperature and density measurements made during a number of transient heating runs in which energy was supplied by a plane heater immersed in the sample. Temperature measurements were made with a resolution of 10 μK by means of a set of five thermistors while density changes in the sample were monitored interferometrically. The results of these measurements show clearly that diffusive heat transfer slows dramatically as one approaches the critical point and that only a thin boundary layer adjacent to the heater is influenced directly by thermal conduction. We also observe clear evidence of the so-called adiabatic or piston-effect which results in a spatially-uniform temperature and density rise in the bulk of the fluid. The adiabatic temperature rise is shown to be essentially linear in time, synchronous with the heating and proportional to the heater power. The magnitude of the temperature rise is found to be consistent with theory, only when heat losses are taken into account.
