“…However, Ghanaei et al, by assuming constant slopes for the change of fusion and solid–solid transition temperatures of pure paraffins by increasing pressure, developed the following formulation for the Poynting term: On the basis of Ghanaei et al, with an accurate estimate and regardless of the carbon number of the pure alkane the values of 4.5 MPa·K –1 and 3.5 MPa·K –1 can be assigned to the slope of change of their saturation pressure with temperatures of fusion, , and solid–solid transition, , for all heavy alkanes. To obtain this the authors have assessed a large database of experimental fusion and solid–solid transition temperatures of pure alkanes at high pressure reported in the literature. ,− On the basis of the current study evaluations and some work in the literature this assumption is indeed precise (it will be shown later on, utilized in a different scheme). This way they removed the need for parameter δ defined in the work of Nasrifar and Fani-Kheshty .…”
