Abstract
The departure from ideal gas behavior is described by several known equations of state (EoS), developed from a combination of theoretical considerations and experimental correlations. In this work, a different approach, in the framework of kinetic theory, is proposed: from a pairwise potential of the Lennard–Jones type, the interaction between molecules is accounted for by means of a self-consistent force field. The propagation of a perturbation wave in the dense gas or liquid of unperturbed density n0 is described and the isothermal propagation velocity is determined. An EoS is derived and compared to the van der Waals EoS, of which it is found to reproduce the main features.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
