Carbon dioxide is a substance whose properties have been the subject of innumerable investigations. Particularly the pressure-volume-temperature relationships when in the gaseous and liquid phases have provided data for the basis of equations of state. The thermal properties are not so well known and an investigation of these is the purpose of the following paper. The actual measurements to be described deal with the direct determination of the latent heat of fusion, the latent heat of sublimation and the specific heats of the solid and liquid over the temperature range of 0°C. to —184°C. The experimental methods employed are of sufficient interest to warrant a detailed description. Since it was found that the specific heat of the solid carbon dioxide gave abnormally high results the expansion coefficient of the solid was measured.

The actual problem of the possibility of using the equations of state for the gas phase of natural gas at temperatures below 250 K is considered. To solve it, the compressibility coefficients of natural gas obtained experimentally with high accuracy are required. The technique was developed and experimental study was carried out of compressibility factor aiming expanding temperature range of the state equations GERG-2004 and AGA8-DC92. The proposed technique is based on the fact that to assess the applicability of the equation of state, it is sufficient to obtain the relative value of the compressibility coefficient and not to determine its absolute value. The technique does not require complex equipment and provides high accuracy. The technique was tested on nitrogen, argon, air and methane. Uncertainty of determination of the compressibility factor is not greater than 0.1 %. For two different compositions of natural gas, obtained experimental data were demonstrated that the equations of state GERG-2004 and AGA8-92DC provide uncertainty of the calculation of the compressibility coefficient within 0.1 % in the temperature range from 220 K to 250 K and pressure below 5 MPa.

The specific heats of five polymers were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in the temperature range of 300 to 360 K. The measurements were performed with polymers in the form of films, powders, and granules to clarify whether or not DSC specific heat values are dependent on the diminution of the sample. It was found that the specific heats for the bulk and powdered form of the polymer samples are indistinguishable within the error limits, justifying the determination of specific heats of powders by means of DSC.

Field testing of gas turbine compressor packages requires the accurate determination of efficiency, capacity, head, power and fuel flow in sometimes less than ideal working environments. Nonetheless, field test results have significant implication for the compressor and gas turbine manufacturers and their customers. Economic considerations demand that the performance and efficiency of an installation are verified to assure a project’s return on investment. Thus, for the compressor and gas turbine manufacturers, as well as for the end-user, an accurate determination of the field performance is of vital interest. This paper describes an analytic method to predict the measurement uncertainty and, thus, the accuracy, of field test results for gas turbine driven compressors. Namely, a method is presented which can be employed to verify the validity of field test performance results. The equations governing the compressor and gas turbine performance uncertainties are rigorously derived and results are numerically compared to actual field test data. Typical field test measurement uncertainties are presented for different sets of instrumentation. Test parameters that correlate to the most significant influence on the performance uncertainties are identified and suggestions are provided on how to minimize their measurement errors. The effect of different equations of state on the calculated performance is also discussed. Results show that compressor efficiency uncertainties can be unacceptably high when some basic rules for accurate testing are violated. However, by following some simple measurement rules and maintaining commonality of the gas equations of state, the overall compressor package performance measurement uncertainty can be limited and meaningful results can be achieved.

Based on application the physical constraint equations of state of stress and strain of the metal for the isotropic medium, we get expressions for components of stress tensor. The new theoretical method for calculation of contact pressures and rolling force during rolling of double-T section in a universal beam groove was developed. Reliability of the method is confirmed by the results of experimental verification for conditions of rolling of H-beam No 35B1, 40K2 and 45B2 from steel 15CrSiNiCu on the universal beam mill of "NTMK". The average calculation error is 6.4%. The new method is recommended for calculation pass design and technological modes of H-beam rolling on rail-beam and section mills, equipped with universal stands.

The paper deals with the flow properties of dense gases in the throat area of slender nozzles. Starting from the Navier–Stokes equations supplemented with realistic equations of state for gases which have relatively large specific heats a novel form of the viscous transonic small-perturbation equation is derived. Evaluation of the inviscid limit of this equation shows that three sonic points rather than a single sonic point may occur during isentropic expansion of such media, in contrast to the case of perfect gases. As a consequence, a shock-free transition from subsonic to supersonic speeds cannot, in general, be achieved by means of a conventional converging–diverging nozzle. Nozzles leading to shock-free flow fields must have an unusual shape consisting of two throats and an intervening antithroat. Additional new results include the computation of the internal thermoviscous structure of weak shock waves and a phenomenon referred to as impending shock splitting. Finally, the relevance of these results to the description of external transonic flows is discussed briefly.
