In this paper we present measurements of the Soret coefficient (D'/D) by means of a flowing cell technique for disulfide- 3 methylpentane and for the three associated solutions: carbon tetrachloride-ethanol, carbon tetrachloride-isopropanol and water-isopropanol.

Thermal diffusion, or Soret effect, in porous media is mathematically modeled with the Firoozabadi model based on non-equilibrium thermodynamics. The Soret effect in a binary mixture is investigated in a vertical cavity with heterogeneous permeability, where natural convection can occur. The thermo solutal convection with heterogeneous permeability was studied in terms of flow pattern, concentration distribution, component separation ratio, and Soret coefficient distribution. A consistent analysis was conducted and it is concluded that the Soret coefficient of thermal diffusion in porous media strongly depends on the heterogeneity of permeability.

Abstract Equimolar mixtures composed of isomers were firstly used to investigate the molecular branching effect on thermal diffusion behavior, which was not disturbed by factors of molecular mass and composition in this work. Eight heptane isomers, including n-heptane, 2-methylhexane, 3-methylhexane, 2,2-dimethylpentane, 2,3-dimethylpentane, 2,4-dimethylpentane, 3,3-dimethylpentane and 3-ethylpentane, were chosen as the researched mixtures. A non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulation with enhanced heat exchange (eHEX) algorithm was applied to calculate the Soret coefficient at T = 303.15 T=303.15  K and P = 1.0 atm P=1.0\hspace{0.1667em}\text{atm} . An empirical correlation based on an acentric factor was proposed and its calculation coincides with the simulated results, which showed the validity of the NEMD simulation. It is demonstrated that the isomer with higher acentric factor has a stronger thermophilic property and tends to migrate to the hot region in the heptane isomer mixture, and the extent of thermal diffusion is proportional to the difference between the acentric factors of the isomers.

A conductometric method is described and applied for the determination of the Soret coefficient of normal carboxylic acids in aqueous solutions in order to check a new model described in our previous papers. The Soret cell originally developed by Agar and Turner was applied with only minor modifications. The results show that the deviations between the measured and calculated Soret coefficients are lower than 2.5% except for formic acid (33% in average).
