Isobaric Heat Capacity Of Ethylene Over A Wide Range Of Temperature And Pressure, Robert John Sibilia Apr 1953

Isobaric Heat Capacity Of Ethylene Over A Wide Range Of Temperature And Pressure, Robert John Sibilia

Theses

The effect of pressure and temperature on the isobaric heat capacity at constant volume for ethylene relative to the ideal gas state is presented. The results cover pressures from 0 to 10,000 FA and temperatures from 32.0°F to 2372.0°F.

The deviation of the isobaric heat capacity of ethylene from the ideal gas state for the wide range of pressure and temperature covered was found from an equation derived from the Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation of state. Graphs and tables relating the deviation of the isobaric h capacity: the deviation of heat capacity at constant volume, pressures and temperature are included.

The results …
