Wong–Sandler mixing rule

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Wong–Sandler mixing rule is a thermodynamic mixing rule used for vapor–liquid equilibrium and liquid-liquid equilibrium calculations.[1]

Summary

[edit]

The first boundary condition is

which constrains the sum of a and b. The second equation is

with the notable limit as (and ) of

The mixing rules become

The cross term still must be specified by a combining rule, either
