    CHAPTER 8

    THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS

    8.1 THE MAXWELL RELATIONS

    The Maxwell Relations are:

    (8.1)

    (8.2)

    (8.3)

    (8.4)

    These relations are important because they relate the entropy to easily measured properties - pressure, volume and temperature.

    8.2 CLAPEYRON EQUATION

    The Clapeyron Equation is an important relation involving the saturation pressure and temperature, the change of enthalpy associated with a change of phase, and the specific volumes of the two phases.

    The form of the Clapeyron equation is:

    (8.5)

    where hfg is the enthalpy of vaporization.

    8.3 OTHER THERMODYNAMIC RELATIONS

    There are a number of other useful relations that can be easily derived:

    (8.6)

    (8.7)

    (8.8)

    (8.9)

    (8.10)

    (8.11)

    (8.12)

    (8.13)

    Enthalpy

    (8.14)

    Internal Energy

    (8.15)

    Entropy

    (8.16)

    Specific heats

    (8.17)

    (8.18)

    (8.19)

    (8.20)

    8.4 EQUATIONS OF STATE

    The P-V-T relation is often stated in the form of an equation which is called an equation of state:

    (8.21)

    Van der Waals Equation

    (8.22)

    a, b are constants for any one substance.

    Dieterici Equation

    (8.23)

    Beattie-Bridgeman Equation

    (8.24)

    A = A0(1-a/v), B = B0(1-B/v), ε = c/UT³ and

    A 0, a, B 0, b and c are constants for different gases. Values for
