Determination of thermodynamic properties from the speed of sound

Abstract: We describe methods by which all of the observable thermodynamic properties of a compressed gas. including the compressibility factor and the isochoric heat capacity, ,nay be determined from sound speed data by numerical integration of a pair of partial differenti~,l equations. The technique ,nay be employed over a wide range of conditions. Initial values are required, but we demonstrate that values specified on an isotherm close to the critical temperature are sufficient for application of the method to the e… Show more

“…(16) Transport properties were obtained from two sources: the viscosity was calculated from the correlation due to Younglove and Ely, (17) while the thermal conductivity was obtained from the correlation reported by Vesovic et al (18) The zero-pressure radius of the resonator was taken from our recent calibration measurements. (5) The possibility of dispersion arising from vibrational relaxation in the gas was also investigated. Mean vibrational relaxation times t vib for ethane (assuming series excitation of all internal modes) were estimated from the observed resonance line widths by the method described elsewhere.…”

“…The speed of sound u was determined from the frequencies f 0n of the radial modes by analysis in terms of the standard acoustic model in which (u/a 0 ) is given by: (1,2,5,15) (u/a 0 ) = (2pa/a 0 )…”
