Clausius equation of state: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 16:29, 6 February 2008

The Clausius equation of state is given by

[p + \frac{a}{T (v + c)^{2}}] (v - b) = R T

where

a = v_{c} - \frac{R T_{c}}{4 P_{c}}

b = \frac{3 R T_{c}}{8 P_{c}} - v_{c}

and

c = \frac{27 R^{2} T_{c}^{2}}{64 P_{c}}

where $p$ is the pressure, $T$ is the temperature and $R$ is the molar gas constant. $T_{c}$ is the critical temperature and $P_{c}$ is the pressure at the critical point.
