Thermodynamic Properties of Fluids: 6.1 Property Relations For Homogeneous Phases

This chapter discusses thermodynamic properties of fluids. It develops fundamental property relations from the first and second laws of thermodynamics that allow calculation of enthalpy and entropy from pressure-volume-temperature and heat capacity data. These relations are presented for homogeneous fluids of constant composition in Maxwell's equations. Equations are derived relating enthalpy and entropy to temperature and pressure using heat capacity and volume expansivity. The ideal gas state is used as an example to simplify the equations. Alternative forms incorporating compressibility and isothermal compressibility are presented for liquids.

Chapter 6
Thermodynamic Properties of Fluids

Initial purpose in this chapter is to develop from the first and second laws the fundamental
property relations which underlie the mathematical structure of thermodynamics. From these,
we derive equations which allow calculation of enthalpy and entropy values from PVT and
heat-capacity data. We then discuss the diagrams and tables by which property values are
presented for convenient use. Finally, we develop generalized correlations which provide
estimates of property values in the absence of complete experimental information.

6.1 PROPERTY RELATIONS FOR HOMOGENEOUS PHASES

The first law for a closed system of n moles is:

For the special case of a reversible process,

Equations (1.2) and (5.12) are here written:

Together these three equations give:

where U, S, and V are molar values of the internal energy, entropy, and volume.

In Chap. 2 the enthalpy was defined as a matter of convenience by the equation:

Two additional properties, also defined for convenience, are the Helmholtz energy,

and the Gibbs energy,

Each of these defined properties leads directly to an equation like Eq. (6.1). Upon
multiplication by n, Eq. (2.11) becomes:

Differentiation gives:

When d(nU) is replaced by Eq. (6. 1), this reduces to:

Similarly, from Eq. (6.2),

Eliminating d(nU) by Eq. (6.1) gives:

In analogous fashion, Eqs. (6.3) and (6.4) combine to yield:

Equations (6.4) through (6.6) are subject to the same restrictions as Eq. (6.1). All are written
for the entire mass of any closed system.

Immediate application of these equations is to one mole (or to a unit mass) of a homogeneous
fluid of constant composition. For this case, they simplify to:

These fundamental property relations are general equations for a homogeneous fluid of
constant composition.

The thermodynamic properties U, H, A, and G are known to be functions of the variables on


the right sides of Eqs. (6.7) through (6.10); we may therefore write the relationship expressed
for each of these equations:

These are Maxwell's equations.

Enthalpy and Entropy as Functions of T and P:

Consider first the temperature derivatives. Equation (2.20) defines the heat capacity at
constant pressure:

Another expression for this quantity is obtained by division of Eq. (6.8) by dT and restriction
of the result to constant P

Combination of this equation with Eq. (2.20) gives:

The pressure derivative of the entropy results directly from Eq. (6.16):

The corresponding derivative for the enthalpy is found by division of Eq. (6.8) by dP and
restriction to constant T:

As a result of Eq. (6.18) this becomes:

The functional relations chosen here for H and S are:

The partial derivatives in these two equations are given by Eqs. (2.20) and (6.17) through
(6.19):

These are general equations relating the properties of homogeneous fluids of constant
composition to temperature and pressure.

Internal Energy as a Function of P

The pressure dependence of the internal energy is obtained by differentiation of the equation,
U=H-PV:

The Ideal-Gas State:

The coefficients of dT and dP in Eqs. (6.20) and (6.21) are evaluated from heat-capacity and
PVT data. The ideal-gas state provides an example of PVT behavior:

Substituting these equations into Eqs. (6.20) and (6.21) reduces them to:

where superscript "ig" denotes an ideal-gas value. These are merely restatements of equations
for ideal gases presented in Secs. 3.3 and 5.5.

Alternative Forms for Liquids

Alternative form Equations (6.18) and (6.19) result when ( V/ T)p replaced by βV Eq. (3.2)

An alternative form Equations (6.22) results if, in addition ( V/ P)T is replaced by –kV Eq.
(3.3)

These equations, incorporating β and k, although general, are usually applied only to liquids.
However, for liquids not near the critical point, the volume itself is small, as are β and K.
Thus at most conditions pressure has little effect on the properties of liquids.

When ( V/ T)p is replaced in Eqs. (6.20) and (6.21) in favor of the volume expansivity,
they become:

Since β and k are weak functions of pressure for liquids, they are usually assumed constant at
appropriate average values for integration of the final terms of Eqs. (6.28) and (6.29).
