University,

A general method of predicting the effective molecular diameters and the thermodynamic properties for fluid mix tures based on the hard-sphere expansion conformai solution theory is developed. The method of Verlet and Wets pro duces effective hard-sphere diameters for use with this method for those fluids whose intermolecular potentials are known. For fluids with unknown potentials, a new method has been developed for obtaining the effective diameters from isochoric behavior of pure fluids. These methods have been extended to polar fluids by adding a new polar excess function, to account for polar contributions in a mixture. A new set of pseudo parameters has been developed for this purpose. The calculation of thermodynamic properties for several fluid mixtures including CH -CO has been carried out successfully. 4
