Here is a similar formula from the 67th edition of the CRC handbook. Note that the form of this formula as given is a fit to the Clausius–Clapeyron equation, which is a good theoretical starting point for calculating saturation vapor pressures:
Air–fuel equivalence ratio, λ (lambda), is the ratio of actual AFR to stoichiometry for a given mixture. λ = 1.0 is at stoichiometry, rich mixtures λ < 1.0, and lean mixtures λ > 1.0. There is a direct relationship between λ and AFR. To calculate AFR from a given λ, multiply the measured λ by the stoichiometric AFR for that fuel.
This Wikipedia page provides a comprehensive list of boiling and freezing points for various solvents.
Pitzer equations [1] are important for the understanding of the behaviour of ions dissolved in natural waters such as rivers, lakes and sea-water. [2] [3] [4] They were first described by physical chemist Kenneth Pitzer. [5]
A dish of ethanol aflame. Various alcohols are used as fuel for internal combustion engines.The first four aliphatic alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, and butanol) are of interest as fuels because they can be synthesized chemically or biologically, and they have characteristics which allow them to be used in internal combustion engines.
Flammability diagram for methane. Flammability diagrams show the control of flammability in mixtures of fuel, oxygen and an inert gas, typically nitrogen.Mixtures of the three gasses are usually depicted in a triangular diagram, known as a ternary plot.
Methanol: −0.824 19 °C Formic acid: −0.413 25 °C Diethyl ether: 0.833 20 °C p-Dichlorobenzene: 3.370 25 °C Hexamethylbenzene: 4.610 25 °C
DePriester Charts provide an efficient method to find the vapor-liquid equilibrium ratios for different substances at different conditions of pressure and temperature. The original chart was put forth by C.L. DePriester in an article in Chemical Engineering Progress in 1953.
