The light gases deviate markedly from the Law of Corresponding States approximately obeyed by the heavier gases. This is due, at least in part, to the quantization of translational motion at higher densities. This effect has been studied within the framework of a generalized van der Waals model. Each particle is treated as moving within a cubic volume determined by the surrounding particles. Changes to the critical parameters and to the shapes of the coexistence and vapour pressure curves are calculated and compare well with experiment, considering the simplicity of our model.

The peak and minimum boiling heat fluxes for a variety of fluids are correlated with pressure, with geometry as a parameter. These correlations are achieved with the use of nondimensionalizing functions of invariant fluid properties that are based upon Zuber’s proposed mechanism for the extreme heat fluxes and upon the Law of Corresponding States. The method of correlation is applied with success to data from the literature as well as to new measurements provided by the authors. A clear contribution of geometry is identified.
