Accurate and Efficient Evaluation of the Second Virial Coefficient Using Practical Intermolecular Potentials for Gases

Hryniewicki, Maciej Konrad 24 August 2011 (has links)
The virial equation of state p = ρRT[ 1 + B(T) ρ + C(T) ρ2 + · · ·] for high pressure and density gases is used for computing chemical equilibrium properties and mixture compositions of strong shock and detonation waves. The second and third temperature-dependent virial coefficients B(T) and C(T) are included in tabular form in computer codes, and they are evaluated by polynomial interpolation. A very accurate numerical integration method is presented for computing B(T) and its derivatives for tables, and a sophisticated method is introduced for interpolating B(T) more accurately and efficiently than previously possible. Tabulated B(T) values are non-uniformly distributed using an adaptive grid, to minimize the size and storage of the tables and to control the maximum relative error of interpolated values. The methods introduced for evaluating B(T) apply equally well to the intermolecular potentials of Lennard-Jones in 1924, Buckingham and Corner in 1947, and Rice and Hirschfelder in 1954.
