Important physical properties, that characterize a substance, are the density and pressure of saturated vapors (PSV). These parameters need to be known when developing new technological processes in oil refining and chemical industries, designing pipelines, pumping equipment, fuel equipment, hydraulic cleaning processes, calculations related to the amount of petroleum products in mass volume, when operating technical systems running on liquid fuel. For gasoline fractions, the density is a normalized quality parameter, it is an integral part of various combined constants and calculation formulas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
