  2. Vapor quality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_quality

    The quantitatively described steam quality (steam dryness) is the proportion of saturated steam in a saturated water/steam mixture. In other words, a steam quality of 0 indicates 100% liquid, while a steam quality of 1 (or 100%) indicates 100% steam. The quality of steam on which steam whistles are blown is variable and may affect frequency.

  3. Saturation dome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_Dome

    This quality is defined as the fraction of the total mixture which is vapor, based on mass. [3] A fully saturated vapor has a quality of 100% while a saturated liquid has a quality of 0%. Quality can be estimated graphically as it is related to the specific volume, or how far horizontally across the dome the point exists.

    DISPLAY-2 (Greece) – A vapour cloud dispersion model for neutral or denser-than-air pollution plumes over irregular, obstructed terrain on a local scale. It accommodates jet releases as well as two-phase (i.e., liquid-vapor mixtures) releases. This model was also developed at the National Centre of Scientific Research "DEMOKRITOS" of Greece.

  5. Critical point (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_point...

    The liquidliquid critical point of a solution, which occurs at the critical solution temperature, occurs at the limit of the two-phase region of the phase diagram. In other words, it is the point at which an infinitesimal change in some thermodynamic variable (such as temperature or pressure) leads to separation of the mixture into two ...

  6. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The construction of a liquid vapor phase diagram assumes an ideal liquid solution obeying Raoult's law and an ideal gas mixture obeying Dalton's law of partial pressure. A tie line from the liquid to the gas at constant pressure would indicate the two compositions of the liquid and gas respectively. [14]

  7. Kelvin equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_equation

    An equation similar to that of Kelvin can be derived for the solubility of small particles or droplets in a liquid, by means of the connection between vapour pressure and solubility, thus the Kelvin equation also applies to solids, to slightly soluble liquids, and their solutions if the partial pressure is replaced by the solubility of the ...

  8. Redlich–Kwong equation of state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redlich–Kwong_equation_of...

    It soon became desirable to obtain an equation that would also model well the Vaporliquid equilibrium (VLE) properties of fluids, in addition to the vapor-phase properties. [10] Perhaps the best known application of the Redlich–Kwong equation was in calculating gas fugacities of hydrocarbon mixtures, which it does well, that was then used ...
