Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

• Integrate linear gradient theory with SRK EOS and four volume-translated SRK EOSs. • This model yields more accurate surface tension and saturation property predictions. • This model performs best in predicting density profiles among these models. • This model exactly reproduces the critical volumes of dry gas constituents. Dry gas, mainly comprised of methane, ethane, and other light alkanes, is a crucial energy source with widespread applications. Accurate surface tension predictions of dry gas constituents are important for the design and optimization of various industrial dry-gas-based systems. In this study, we integrate the linear gradient theory with five Soave-Redlich-Kwong equations of state (SRK EOSs) (including the original SRK EOS and several volume-translated SRK EOSs), leading to the development of various linear-gradient-theory-based surface tension models. Among these five models, the linear gradient theory coupled with the volume-translated SRK EOS proposed in our previous work demonstrates the highest accuracy in predicting the surface tension for the 10 dry gas constituents considered in this study, with an %AAD of 0.90. The linear gradient theory combined with our previously proposed volume-translated SRK EOS also performs best in calculating density profiles among the five surface tension models. Moreover, the previously proposed volume-translated SRK EOS is capable of accurately predicting the saturation properties and exactly replicating the true critical volumes of the 10 dry gas constituents.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
