  abstract: Two general topics are covered in this dissertation: (1) new
  abstract: procedures for phase equilibrium calculations and (2)
  abstract: specific application of the new procedures to the C02/H20
  abstract: system A robust and fast algorithm has been developed to
  abstract: calculate phase equilibria based upon a new Gibbs energy
  abstract: minimization method, the Equal Area Rule (EAR) method, for
  abstract: multicomponent and/or multi-phase mixture systems. Eubank
  abstract: and Hall (1995) have shown the equal area rule (EAR) applies
  abstract: to the composition derivative of the Gibbs energy of a binary
  abstract: system at fixed pressure and temperature regardless of
  abstract: derivative continuity. In this dissertation, we show that EAR
  abstract: can be extended up to quaternary systems (any by analogy to
  abstract: any number of components). In ternary systems, a single
  abstract: directional vector is sought in composition space; at
  abstract: equilibria this vector is the familiar tie-line. A sensitive
  abstract: criteria for equilibrium under EAR is equality of orthogonal
  abstract: derivatives such as 9 r =- (aglaxi),2,P,Tat the end points
  abstract: (cc and 0), where g =- (AmG/RT). Repeated use of the binary
  abstract: algorithm published in the above reference allows rapid,
  abstract: simple solutions for ternary problems. Using a similar
  abstract: scheme, the EAR method was extended to quaternary system
  abstract: Examples of applications covering up to three-phase mixture
  abstract: cases are given. Another new criterion, termed the maximum
  abstract: partial equal area rule (WEAR), searches for the directional
  abstract: vector as presented in this dissertation. We define an area
  abstract: (AOC) related to the overall composition as the partial area
  abstract: inside the upper area (U) or lower area (L) on the g, - xi
  abstract: diagrani. This area is always a maximum when equilibrium is
  abstract: achieved in agreement with a thermodynamic proof presented
  abstract: here within. In addition, a study is presented about the
  abstract: prediction of the phase equilibrium behavior of the carbon
  abstract: dioxide/water system. The model used in this work is the
  abstract: Peng Robinson equation of state with the Wong-Sandler mixture
  abstract: combining rules (MCR). The parameters used in the Wong-
  abstract: Sandler MCR have been selected to minimize the deviations
  abstract: between experimental data and prediction results for liquid-
  abstract: phase solubilities. The model has been applied to pressures
  abstract: up to 1000 bar, and temperatures up to 623 K Three-phase
  abstract: pressures and compositions are also calculated using the EAR
  abstract: procedure employed with this model.
