Thermodynamic properties of real gases and BWR equation of state

Abstract

The fundamental base for the calculation of the thermodynamic properties of materials is thermal equation of state and dependence of some of the basic specific heat capacities on temperature. The dependence of the specific thermal capacity on the second independent variable (for example on the volume) it is already possible to deduce from the thermal equation of state. The aim of this paper is to assess the compliance values of specific heat capacity which was calculated using the BWR thermal equation of the state and experimentally obtained known values of specific heat capacity for the substance, whose characteristics are available in a wide range of state space.
