Thermodynamic and Transport Properties Under Pressure
Monday, November 16, 2020 - 9:00am to 9:15am
Thermodynamic and transport properties near critical conditions exhibit unique sensitivity both in magnitude and direction near critical conditions that transcends to opportunities in development of new transformative processes and products. This presentation extend the sensitivity analysis to all the key fundamental dimensionless constants capturing potentials in processing at such conditions. Portfolio of materials synthesis, separation, reaction, fluid flow and heat transfer implications will be illustrated while the fluids studied includes water, carbon dioxide and ethanol.
