Fugacity - Fugacity of A Pure Liquid

Fugacity of A Pure Liquid

For a pure fluid in vapor-liquid equilibrium, the vapor phase fugacity is equal to the liquid phase fugacity. At pressures above the saturation pressure, liquid phase fugacity is:

The exponential term represents the Poynting correction factor and is usually near 1.0 unless pressures are very high. Frequently, the fugacity of the pure liquid is used as a reference state when using activity coefficients.

Famous quotes containing the words pure and/or liquid:

    Whenever a person strives, by the help of dialectic, to start in pursuit of every reality by a simple process of reason, independent of all sensuous information—never flinching, until by an act of the pure intelligence he has grasped the real nature of good—he arrives at the very end of the intellectual world.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    Shopping malls are liquid TVs for the end of the twentieth century. A whole micro-circuitry of desire, ideology and expenditure for processed bodies drifting through the cyber-space of ultracapitalism.
    Arthur Kroker (b. 1945)
